Opposition Republic party’s political council issued a statement on the verdict against the activists of the opposition Armenian National Congress bloc, News.am reports.
The ruling regime continues its political persecution and the policy encouraging law enforcers’ violence, the statement says.
A verdict against activists of the opposition Armenian National Congress bloc was delivered last Friday.
Tigran Arakelyan was sentenced to six years, Artak Karapetyan to three, Sargis Gevorgyan and Davit Kiramijyan to two years in jail.
The party labeled the verdict as “illegal and brutal” calling the activists “victims of political persecution.”
