Member of the Political Board of the "Hanrapetutiun" (Republic)
Party Suren Sureniants has stopped hunger-strike. On the night of
April 6 the arrestee’s immune system weakened rapidly.

"It was impossible to continue the hunger-strike in such a state as
it might ruin Sureniants’ health," Armen Khachatrian, member of the
pre-election headquarters for Levon Ter-Petrossian informed A1+.

Reminder: Suren Sureniants has been on a hunger-strike since March
24 with a demand to stop political persecution and release him.

We shall learn more details about Sureniants’ state later today after
his attorney’s visit to the "Nubarashen" penitentiary institution.
