    ANC rally participants appealed to delegates of International
    Federation of Human Rights (FIDH) congress calling to officially
    recognize presence of political prisoners in Armenia.

    In its statement, ANC expresses hope that FIDH will adopt principal
    stance and make statement demanding immediate release of 14 political
    prisoners from RA authorities.

    "Otherwise, the regular FIDH congress will assist the hiding of crimes
    committed by Armenian authorities," the statement reads.

    Former Yerevan Mayor Vahagn Khachatryan took the floor, criticizing
    Armenian leadership for increasing utility rates and prices for
    foodstuff, NEWS.am correspondent reports. Khachatryan also charged
    the authorities with sitting on their hands in easing consequences
    of price rise.
