Members of the ‘Armenia’ Alliance Head to Police Stations; Saghatelian Comments on Detaining ARF Members

This morning, around 7 AM, representatives of law enforcement agencies raided the homes of several members of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (ARF) in the Ararat region and Yerevan under the pretext of conducting searches, resulting in detentions. This was reported on Facebook by Ishkhan Saghatelian, a member of the National Assembly from the ‘Armenia’ faction and a representative of the ARF Supreme Body.

He also added, 'Law enforcement representatives have also carried out operations at the home of Gerasim Vardanyan, who had been unlawfully detained for 6 months and was only recently released by court order. The law enforcement system continues to be a blunt instrument in the hands of the treacherous government for resolving political issues. Currently, members of the ‘Armenia’ alliance are heading to police and investigative departments, and we will provide further details on the situation.'
