The Armenian Committee for the Protection of Political Prisoners issued a statement today.

"The health condition of Zhamanak Yerevan's editor-in-chief Arman Babajanian is periled. He needs high-quality medical treatment. All motions for the political prisoner's conditional release have been rejected. With their ungrounded and unlawful refusals the Armenian authorities again proved that they wreak vengeance upon Arman Babajanian and that the criminal proceedings and unprecedented verdict are connected with Babajanian's professional activities. "

The Committee is concerned about Arman Babajanian's health condition and demands the latter's immediate release," says the statement.
