Taking into consideration the written statement of "Yerkir" Union
of NGOs for Repatriation and Settlement, the Human Rights defender
of the Republic of Armenia Armen Harutyunyan has issued a letter
(in Russian), where he asked his Georgian counterpart to monitor the
trials of the Javakhk Armenian political activists Vahagn Chakhalyan,
Gourgen Shirinyan and his relatives.
The Ombudsman's letter states:
"Dear Mr. Subari,
I have received a written statement from R. Tatoyan, Head of "Yerkir"
Union of Non-governmental rganizations for Repatriation and Settlement.
In the statement Mr. Tatoyan expresses deep concern about the lawsuit
against Vahagn Chakhalyan - the leader of the "United Javakhk"
Democratic Alliance" political movement, Gourgen Shirinyan - a
political activist, and the members of their families.
Mr. Tatoyan states that the investigations, as well as the judicial
proceedings are held with major violations of human rights.
Taking into account our agreements, I kindly ask you to organize
monitoring activities and to find out whether the human rights
provided for by the international treaties acceded to or ratified by
the Republic of Georgia are observed.
May I take this opportunity to wish you a Happy New Year and Merry
Christmas!"
