/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Another telephone number – 56 35 49 – will add next
week to the already existing hotline 56 42 97, opened October 21,
2004, via which citizens can report about facts of breaking their
rights by Jehovah’s Witnesses religious organization. Leader of the
youth wing of the Republican Party of Armenia Armen Ashotian reported
it. It should be reminded that this autumn being concerned over the
facts of breaking human rights resulting from the activities of
Jehovah’s Witnesses and some other religious movements, over 40 youth
organizations of diverse political and public orientation initiated
creation of the mentioned hotline. Violation of child rights, cases
of suicide, desecration of Armenian Christian symbols (icons,
khachkars, etc.) are specifically mentioned. At the same time, in
Ashotian’s words, the hotline has not been efficient yet, as people
are not informed well about it.
