Kristine Aghalaryan
The family of Armen Chakhalyan, arrested in Georgia on June 28,
has filed an appeal protesting his two month pre-trial detainment.
Armen Chakhalyan's brother, noted Javakhk activist Vahagn Chakhalyan,
told Hetq that the family has filed a protest with the Akhalkalak
Regional Court which is scheduled to review the matter in 5-8 days.
Armen Chakhalyan was detained following a brawl in the Ninotzmida
village of Gondoura.
Vahagn Chakhalyan has termed the entire incident as politically
motivated, adding that the one person injured in the fight has even
testified that Armen Chakhalyan wasn't the person who struck him.
He was detained solely on the testimony of one other youth who claimed
that he spotted an iron bar in Armen Chakhalyan's hand.
