After spending 20 days in the Yerevan-Kentron prison which is known
as KGB basement, Vahagn Chakhalyan, chairman of United Javakhk
Democratic Alliance, writes poems. Chakhalyan was indicted for
illegally crossing Georgian-Armenian border. Chakhalyan refrained
from commenting on the incident in a press conference today, saying,
"the case is under investigation yet."

He said no violence is used against him in the prison cell. Asked
by a reporter if he was warned by authorities to be careful while
talking to mass media outlets, he said, "I do not know. I was not
told anything."
