Yezidis rise up in Armenia
Today representative of the Yazidi community have gathered outside the Presidential Palace holding posters reading: "Freedom to Jndi Amaryan", "We shall not tolerate injustice", "Judging the innocent, you become guilty". They are demanding to release their compatriot, confidently claiming that he is innocent.
To remind, Jndi Amaryan was detained on April 2 charged with extortion. The action participants note that he was taken to the police station just from his mother’s grave, as that day his mother’s funeral took place.

The action participants also noted that bail is used as a precautionary measure even in case of murder, why cannot it be applied to Jndi?

The action participants must also hand in a letter to Serzh Sargsyan and then march to the General Prosecutor’s Office.

Father of Qyaram Sloyan is also taking part in today’s action. To remind, Qyaram Sloyan was killed during Four-day Artsakh war. Sloyan’s father is also demanding to release Jndi Amaryan, noting that he left his grief and came to support the Yazidi people.
