    HAK continues Friday protests

    07:49 pm | January 25, 2013 | Politics


    Vladimir Karapetyan, a senior member of the opposition Armenian
    National Congress (HAK), knows for sure why the Court of Appeal
    remitted the complaint of the jailed opposition activists.

    "Human Rights Watch has appealed to the Court pointing out the
    violations recorded during the legal procedures and urging the Court
    to mete out justice in Armenia," said Mr Karapetyan.

    The international human rights watchdog also made a number of
    proposals to the Court, saying the failure to implement these
    recommendations will be viewed as violation of commitments by Armenia.

    The partisans of Friday protests continue to demand the immediate
    release of HAK activists Tigran Arakelyan, Artak Karapetyan, Sargis
    Gevorgyan and David Kiramijyan, who were arrested after an August 9,
    2011, standoff with police officers in a Yerevan park and sentenced to
    2-6 years in prison.
