    YEREVAN, December 10. /ARKA/. Violations of the human rights in Armenia
    are more often reported in the sphere of labor, Avetik Ishkhanyan,
    the chairman of Armenian Helsinki Committee, told reporters on Monday.

    "The issues in this sphere are pretty serious. First of all, they
    arise as there are no labor unions in our country," he said at the
    press conference dedicated to International Human Rights Day.

    Judiciary branch is also challenged by a number of human rights
    infringements, according to him.

    "In our republic, the judicial system is dependent on the authorities,"

    rights are violated in Armenia due to lack of the mechanisms for

    He also added that over the recent years, the state structures have
