FOUNDING PARLIAMENT CALLS ATTENTION TO GEVORG SAFARYAN’S CASE
17:27 | April 17,2015 | Politics
Karapet Badalyan, one of the lawyers of Gevorg Safaryan, one of the
arrested members of the Founding Parliament opposition movement,
visited him in prison, the FP said in a statement.
“As has been said earlier, Gevorg Safaryan has been on hunger strike
since yesterday as a sign of protest against political persecution
and illegal imprisonment. Yesterday evening, Safaryan was transferred
to a ward designed for prisoners on hunger strike.
Earlier this month, Safaryan had health problems and needed examination
but the prison administration did not attend to the problem,” the
statement reads.
The Founder Parliament calls the attention of local and international
human rights organizations and observer missions to the fact in order
to prevent political, psychological or physical pressure on him in
the future.
