As a result of effective cooperation with the Ombudsman, the former practice of prohibiting visiting a prisoner by close relatives or a legal representative without valid excuse is excluded, said Armenian Justice Minister Artak Zeynalyan on Tuesday.

His remarks came during the meeting of the standing parliamentary committee on state and legal affairs.

According to him, for the first time in the last 10 years, funds were allocated from the Armenian state budget for capital repairs and subsequent maintenance of the Armenian penitentiary system.

“Thus, the Armenian Government allocated 270 million 858 thousand drams to improve the communal and living conditions of prisoners” he said.
