ArmInfo. The Committee of assistance to Zhirayr Sefilyan expresses
apprehension that just after discharge he will be expelled outside of
Armenia. The statement of the Committee of assistance to Z. Sefilyan,
received by ArmInfo today, says the term of imprisonment of the head
of the public-political organization "In protection of the liberated
territories", convicted for 1,5 years by the Article "Illegal storage
of arms", expires on June 9. The statement authors think that there
are signs of the fact "that after discharge, Sefilyan will be expelled
by RA authorities outside of Armenia. "Such a step, besides the moral
crime, is not only a criminal offence. It will also violate a number
of provisions of RA legislation and will become the ext expression
of a criminal prosecution, to which Z. Sefilyan is subject to by the
authorities", the statement says.
