"Manvel Grigoryan was taken to Nairi Medical Center on June 7; also after our announcement," he said, in particular. “By the way, my [respective] statement was followed by the European Court’s assessments on the same grounds that the conditions of the penitentiary were not sufficient to organize the proper [medical] treatment [for him].
