We received a report short time ago that Hamlet Hovhannisyan, whose
nickname is Tros Hamo, has been released from prison the Yerevan’s
correctional facility. He was the head of the pre-election
headquarters of [the leader of the opposition Armenian National
Congress] Levon Ter-Petrosyan in Lori Region. Hovhannisyan has given a
written undertaking not to leave his place of residence.
We should recall that Hovannisyan was one of three three people
charged over the 1-2 March [2008] events and wanted by the police
since 1 March 2008.
Hovannisyan surrendered to Yerevan’s Malatiya police station on 30
July 2009.
