/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Yerkir Union learnt from reliable sources, that
the Georgian authorities are preparing provocation against Javakhk
political activist Vahagn Chakhalyan aimed at his physical elimination
or neutralization.

As Yerkir Union informed a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, reliability of
these data is indirectly supported by the fact that on July 31 of 2009
Vahagn Chakhalyan was moved from Gldaniysk detention centre number 8,
Tbilisi to a general regime colony number 2 in Rustavi, having much
more favorable conditions for a possible provocation.

Yerkir Union states that the responsibility for possible provocation
against Vahagn Chakhalyan belonges to Georgian President Mikheil
Saakashvili personally and the Minister of Internal Affairs of Georgia
Vano Merabishvili.

Yerkir Union calls from the Georgian authorities to guarantee the
safety of Vahagn Chakhalyan and for this purpose to move the Javakhk
activist back to its former place of detention.

Yerkir Union requests the Public Defender of Georgia Sozar Subari,
the international human rights organizations, accredited diplomatic
missions in Georgia to take effective steps to ensure the safety of
Vahagn Chakhalyan.
