Relatives, friends of life convicts gather before NA urging to view life convicts’ issue
Relatives and friends of life convicts gathered today in front of the NA. They were handing a red rose and a note to passers-by asking them for help.
Yelk faction MP Alen Simonyan talked with the gathered and urged them to submit judicial cases of their convict relatives and promised to discuss the issue with the acting justice minister.
“The revolution gave a positive charge to all, and the NGOs and specialists voiced concrete proposals over the issue of life convicts. The proposals were rejected by the justice ministry which though confronting the moral pressure is artificially protracting the issue and missing the opportunities,” the note says.
“The issue of life convicts might have been solved today in the NA in the sidelines of amnesty,” the note reads.
