    Published on April 02, 2008

    Some newspapers report that 25 people detained in the framework of
    the criminal case instituted in connection with March 1 tragic events,
    being kept in the penitentiaries of the Ministry of Justice, went on
    hunger strike. The information doesn't coincide with the reality.

    We must inform you that from those detained in the framework of the
    before mentioned criminal case, only Suren Surenyants and Vardges
    Gasparyan submitted an application for a hunger strike to the Head
    of the penitentiary.

    We would also like to inform you that on April 1 Karapet Rubinyan,
    who is in "Yerevan Kentron" penitentiary, of the Ministry of Justice,
    submitted an application to the Head of the penitentiary saying that
    from April 2 he will go on a warning hunger strike.

    Malkhasyan Isahak, Ayvazyan Smbat and Vardanyan Alexan in "Vardashen"
    penitentiary, of the Ministry of Justice and Marzpet Ayvazyan, Armen
    Grigoryan, Sayad Hovhannisyan, Vladimir Arakelyan, Shota Saghatelyan,
    Petros and Vardges Makeyans, being kept in "Nubarashen" penitentiary
    of the Ministry of Justice, submitted an application to the Heads of
    the penitentiaries, demanding to terminate the criminal persecution
    towards them.
