20:56 | July 23,2014 | Social
Lifer Harutyun Khachatryan has started a hunger strike at the
Nubarashen penitentiary, Gor Ghlechyan, a spokesman for the
Penitentiary Department at the Justice Ministry, told A1+. He has
demanded the prison administration to move inmates to other cells.
Earlier in July, Harutyun Khachatryan cut his veins and demanded that
prison officials give him more drugs than had been prescribed to him.
Khachatryan's relatives say physicians have got the lifer on a drip
which contradicts the principles of the hunger strike.
Gor Ghelchyan told us that a dropper is tied to an inmate only in extreme cases.
At present, Harutyun Khachatryan is in a separate cell under the
supervision of doctors.
