    [06:05 pm] 25 April, 2007

    Nairi Iritsyan, a member of "United Javakhk" Democratic Alliance
    Presidium and a deputy of the Akhalkalaki sakrebulo (the local
    representative self-government body) and Arthur Poghosyan, an activist
    of the alliance, were arrested at 10:00 p.m. April 24.

    A few hours ago the detainees were taken to Akhaltskha, the centre
    of Samtskhe-Javakhk.

    According to some sources, the reason for Nairi Iritsyan and
    Arthur Poghosyan's arrest was the recent incident with the driver
    of the Akhalkalaki regional prosecutor. Yesterday the prosecutor's
    driver knocked down Andranik Abelyan, a member of "United Javakhk"
    Democratic Alliance and deputy of Akhalkalaki regional sakrebulo in
    Azatutyutyun Street.

    Further on, the driver picked up a raw with Nairi Iritsyan and Arthur
    Poghosyan who rushed to help, report the witnesses.

    It is noteworthy that the members of United Javakhk were returning
    from Samsa village. They had attended an event dedicated to the
    Armenian Genocide victims during which a monument to the Genocide
    victims was unveiled.

    Reminder; Nairi Iritsyan was the Mayor of Akhalkalak in 2003-2006
    and is one of the founders of "United Javakhk" Democratic Alliance.
