“THEY HOPE THAT TER-PETROSYAN WILL FREE THEM…”
Support A1+!The Armenian People’s Party condemns the persecution of French Armenian liberation fighter Sargis Hatspanian. “This goes to show that the police still abide by the commands of head of the investigative department Andranik Mirzoian aimed at the Marz prosecutors. They continue to follow-up on the opposition activists, organize secret hearings of their conversations, gather data from their friends and relatives,” told A1+ member of the APP political council Ruzan Khachatrian.
She said that proof of that was when the police surrounded Sargis Hatspanian’s house seven months ago when he just arrived to Yerevan. “That means that the authorities have followed-up on Hatspanian for the past seven months. After all this, how can they talk about the PACE resolutions and the Human Rights Commissioner? International organizations must be scared of the Armenian authorities.”
Ruzan Khachatrian is amazed to hear some people claim that some political prisoners have been released. “No political prisoner has been released to date because the courts have not released any one of them.”
Khachatrian knows for a fact that the authorities are not planning on doing anything and believes that they are doing that simply to get in the public eye. Khachatryan also believes that the people expect immediate steps from the opposition, just to get rid of this regime.
“The only hope of the people is for Levon Ter-Petrosyan and the national movement members to free them from these authorities.”
