DEMANDS SUBMITTED TO MINISTER

Politics

Fundamental human rights continue to be infringed at penitentiaries of the RoA Justice Ministry. In particular, provocations against political prisoners are incited regularly. We urge Minister of Justice Gevorg Danielian to honour human rights at penitentiaries. We are going to pursue any provocation that will be perpetrated by different criminal marionettes.

Minister Gevorg Danielian is responsible for breach of laws and violation of human rights at penitentiaries.

Evidence to this is the recently revealed footage which exposes the atmosphere and morals at penitentiaries. We, the undersigned, demand that Minister Gevorg Danielan take immediate action to restore law and order at penitentiaries which are within his jurisdiction.
