"Armenia's former parliamentarian Sasun Mikaelian is undergoing treatment in the "Hospital for Convicts" Penitentiary Institution," Arsen Babayan, Spokesman for the Justice Ministry's Department of Penitentiaries told A1+.

Arsen Babayan says Sasun Mikaelian is frequently examined by doctors though he refrained from speaking about the illness.

Reminder: on July 22, 2009, the commander of the "Sasun" detachment, Sasun Mikaelian was sentenced to 8 years in prison for organizing the March 1, 2008 riot in Yerevan and illegally possessing weapons and ammunition.

Advocate Hovik Arsenian was unaware of the results of the medical examination.
