PFA CONDEMNS ARRESTS OF OPPOSITION LEADERS BY ARMENIA'S REGIME
11:12 | April 10,2015 | Politics
Policy Forum Armenia (PFA) condemns in strongest possible terms
the arrests of prominent opposition leaders, members of the Founding
Parliament, and harassment of PFA Executive Board Member Garo Yegnukian
by Armenia's ruling regime in the early morning hours of April 7th.
"We are deeply disturbed by actions against these individuals carried
under the pretense of "preempting mass disturbances," despite several
public announcements by the Founding Parliament to the contrary. Such
actions by the Armenian security apparatus, targeting influential
opposition leaders and taken without securing material evidence,
inflict fear upon Armenian citizens and severely limit political
freedoms.
PFA expresses its support to the civil society in Armenia and calls
upon Armenians in the Diaspora to put all possible pressure on
the regime in Yerevan to stop persecutions of civil and political
activists," the PFA Executive Board said in a statement.
