    PARLIAMENTARY OPPOSITION DEMANDS RELEASE OF ARRESTED DEPUTIES ON BAIL

    Interfax
    April 21 2008
    Russia

    The opposition Heritage faction in the Armenian parliament has urged
    Armenian Prosecutor General Agvan Ovsepyan to release arrested deputies
    on bail.

    In a letter to the prosecutor general, the faction asks him to release
    on bail deputies Akop Akopyan, Myasnik Malkhasyan and Sasun Mikaelyan,
    who were arrested on charges of organizing mass riots in Yerevan on
    March 1 and usurping state power, Heritage member Stepan Safaryan
    told Interfax on Monday.

    Another defendant, Khachatur Sukiasyan, is currently in hiding.

    The letter will be handed to the prosecutor general on April 22,
    Safaryan said.

    Ten people were killed and more 250 sustained injuries during the
    riots.
