In the morning, all offices of “Strong Armenia” in Artashat were searched and around 11 people were taken to unknown directions. Lawyer Yura Dilanyan told journalists about this.

“Until this moment, we are not aware, we are not able to know, in what status the persons were taken, where they were taken and for what they were taken. At the same time, we submitted applications, all the documentary bases that we are entitled to participate in the procedural investigative actions to be performed with our clients, but again in vain, we do not receive any information, we do not have any information.

It is obvious that a person’s right to self-defense has already been violated, and I don’t know in which year justice was served with such a repressive situation,” he said.

When asked why he is not allowed to hold a meeting, Dilanyan replied that the body conducting the proceedings does not provide any justification for this.
