The Committee for the Protection of Political Prisoners issued a statement today which runs in part,
The Armenian leadership ignored the numerous appeals of
international structures and human rights activists calling for a
pre-term release of Arman Babajanian, editor-in-chief of “Zhamanak
Yerevan” and “Zhamanak Los Angeles.”
The authorities’ decision to keep Babajanian in prison is
politically motivated and has no legal grounds. Their promises to
establish a democratic and civil society in Armenia proved to be
hollow.
They hope they will be able to intimidate and silence our compatriots through murders, torture and imprisonment.
The Committee for the Protection of Political Prisoners condemns
the authorities’ step and considers it as a political persecution
against a RoA citizen and a free-thinking journalist.
