Incumbent and former presidents of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic Pago Sahagian and Arkady Ghugasian have sent a letter to Armenia’s Prosecutor General Artur Tavtian asking to commute the decision on remanding ex-president Robert Kocharian in custody, reports Artsakhpress.am
“Traditionally, guests at celebrations in Stepanakert and Shushi include, among other honorable guests, all former leaders of Artsakh Republic, people who have had huge contribution in the Artsakh War, have stood at the origins of the creation of our state and army, have participated in liberating Shushi, have shaped our victory,” Sahagian and Ghugasian said in a joint letter published on the official website of the Artsakh presidency.
“Taking into account that First President of Artsakh Robert Kocharian is detained, we are asking you to make a decision ahead of May 9 and change the bail”. They said they are ready to provide any public guarantee that will be necessary for Kocharian’s release.
They said if all leaders of Artsakh will be present at the celebrations it would be a signal of solidarity and unity “not only for our society, but the entire world and also the adversary.”
