Helsinki Association Statement On The Case Of Alexander Arzumanyan
Closely following the investigation into the criminal case against Alexander Arzumanyan, we have convinced once more that the law enforcement of RA continues to act in the illegal field they created themselves.

The law enforcement bodies, maintaining the logic of their work style created for years, first found the one who sh…

How legal is it that the criminal case against the citizen and soldier of RA is brought by the Prosecutor’s Office of another sovereign state and the court of that very…
