Ban on Family Visits for Political Activist Shant Harutyunyan Lifted

The ban on family visits placed on imprisoned political activist Shant Harutyunyan and his fellow activists, all of whom were detained on Nov. 5 amid calls for revolution and clashes with police, has been removed, Harutyunyan's son wrote on his Facebook page.

"We got the first fruits of our struggle. I'm now going to see my dad, and then we'll continue the struggle for their freedom. Freedom to political prisoners," wrote Shahen Harutyunyan.
