Young oppositional activist Tigran Arakelyan was arrested on 5 July 2009 by the Armenian Police, based on false charge for hooliganism. On 1 July 2009 about 15 policemen dressed in civilian attacked with guns about 30 young oppositional activists who distributed leaflets, informing upcoming opposition rally to be held on 2 July 2009 in Yerevan. 3 of them were severally beaten and taken to the hospital Surb Grigor Lusavorich. Now they fabricated a criminal case of hooliganism and arrested one of the young activists. Please spread the word about this evident act of injustice and disrespect of basic human rights by the Armenian authorities. From 06.07.2009 9:00 Tigran Arakelyan went on a hunger-strike.
Today, 7.07.2009, chairman of the Armenian Pan-national Movement Party’s youth wing Karen Karapetyan has also joined youth wing member Tigran Arakelyan’s hunger strike.
This is a manifest for freedom, for right to speak, for right to think, for right to oppose and for peace. No one should be forced to change his mentality. No one should be imprisoned for his beliefes. No one should be convicted for his political options.
