Yesterday, HCA Vanadzor received an alarm from Vanadzor penitentiary institution.

 

At the moment, 14 persons are on hunger strike in the penitentiary institution. 10 of them wrote an application to the head of the penitentiary institution and complained of not being released early. The other 4 persons’ complaints are related to illegal acts of the previous prosecutor’s office, as a result of which, as they claim, illegal decisions were taken in regard to their cases.
