ArmInfo. A protest action in defense of political prisoners is taking place in front of the U.N. Armenia Office.
The protesters – Resistance Movement members and other citizens - also plan to hold a protest in front of the RA Government in memory of the producer Armen Grigoryan, who died in the courtroom.
Sevak Nazaryan, a member of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation Dashnaktsutyun (ARFD), said that political prisoners number 50 in Armenia. Among them are citizens that have not remained silent and raised problems of national importance, as well Resistance Movement members that stood against the Turkification of the country and Armenians' exodus from Artsakh.
"They are struggling for their Homeland and national state. Each of us could become a political prisoner because each of us is doing what they did and for what they have been imprisoned," Mr Nazaryan said.
"If the so-called international community properly perceived what is going on in Armenia, political prisoners would not die in the courtroom in this country," Mr Nazaryan said.
This is evidence that thee incumbent authorities are ready for new deaths every day only to retain power. And they are becoming more and more impudent as they do not see adequate reactions by the international community, he said.
