Protestors Outside President’s Office Demand Release of Political Prisoners

A group of citizens, primarily Karabakh War veterans, held a protest outside the residence of the President of Armenia today.

They demanded the release of war veteran Volodya Avetisyan as well as others arrested for political reasons, particularly Shant Harutyunyan and his supporters who were arrested on Nov. 5, 2013. Protesters delivered a letter with these requests to the president's office. 

Also participating in the demonstration today was Shant Harutyunyan's son, Shahen Harutyunyan.
