The Nikol regime continues to use house arrest as a tool to silence: freedom for Khachik Galstyan and all political prisoners: Vrtanesyan

The Nikol regime continues to use house arrest as a tool to “tie the hands” of political opponents and silence critics, wrote military expert Karen Vrtanesyan.

According to him, the public must be constantly reminded that house arrest is also a form of arrest, and people placed under house arrest for political motives are political prisoners.

“In recent years, house arrest has become a so-called ‘smart’ (‘smart’, targeted, covert) tool of repression, which the Nikol regime uses to effectively silence political figures and activists for a certain period of time.

Let me remind you that political analyst, lecturer and politician Khachik Galstyan was arrested on December 30. Since February 26, he has been transferred from prison to house arrest. And he remains a political prisoner.

Freedom for Khachik and all political prisoners,” he wrote
