Statement by the People’s Party
"The Armenian authorities have started a more brutal and persistent pursuit of any expression of dissidence.
The court, as a precautionary measure, has chosen a two-month arrest for world-famous boxing champion, multiple champion of the USSR, two-time European champion Samson Khachatryan.
Leader of the People's Party Tigran Karapetyan supports the distinguished athlete and expresses certainty that Samson Khachatryan's arrest is linked to his dissidence and that there are no political motives. The leader of the PP condemns the authorities' intolerable working style when even the distinguished athlete's services for the homeland and his career are not respected," as stated in the statement by the People's Party.
