The head of the "Armenia" faction, Anna Grigoryan, responded at a press conference to the statements of Justice Minister Sarbohi Galyan about the conditions of the detention of the second president of Armenia, Robert Kocharian. According to the Mishnah, if Galian considers these conditions to be acceptable, she should check it personally in practice.
"If Mrs Galyan thinks that the conditions of detention of the second president of the Republic of Armenia Robert Kocharian are really good, let him go and spend a month there. And if the moment comes when she will bear personal responsibility - if she really sees these conditions as good, maybe we will try to arrange it so that she will bear responsibility in the same cell."
- said Grigoryan.
She also called it a shame that the number of convicts in Armenia is many times higher than the number of detainees. According to the deputy, the rate of arrests and convicts in the republic is the highest in the region.
