Arman Babajanyan, Zhamanak daily chief editor, was recently released from prison hospital.

At 3 p.m. his colleagues, relatives, Armenian National Congress members: David Shahnazaryan, Levon Zurabyan, MPs Zaruhi Postangyan, Armen Martirosyan and others gathered in front of the hospital. Babajanyan walked out limping, he merely thanked everyone for support and refused to answer the journalists’ questions.

Babajanyan was in prison hospital diagnosed with a brain tumor causing loss of sight. The independent commission on conditional early discharge refused to consider the issue of Babajanyan’s release, but today he was released.
