Amnesty International негативно оценивает ситуацию в сфере прав человека в Армении

 Международная
организация Amnesty International в своем ежегодном докладе в целом негативно
оценила ситуацию в сфере прав человека в Армении. Представители организации
посетили Армению в июне 2012 года.


Говоря о выборах в Национальное Собрание
РА в мае 2012 года и их итогов, авторы доклада отмечают, что в ходе
предвыборной кампании свобода слова, собраний и передвижения в целом не
ограничивалась, однако наблюдатели отмечали, что скупка голосов происходила
повсеместно, а на некоторых избирателей оказывалось давление.


Представитель правозащитной структуры
констатируют, что хотя свобода слова в целом не ограничивалась, тем не менее,
лица, выражавшие позицию, отличную от общепринятой точки зрения, нередко
сталкивались с неодобрением общества, а порой и насилием.


"Власти не принимали должных мер по
расследованию таких инцидентов и не выступили с их официальным
осуждением",- отмечают правозащитники.


Коснулись они и прошлогодних взрывов в
ереванском гей-клубе. "По имеющимся сведениям, полиция прибыла на место
происшествия лишь 12 часов спустя. В ходе проведённого расследования задержали
двух молодых людей, однако позже их выпустили под залог, внесённый двумя
депутатами от националистической партии "Дашнакцутюн".  Оба депутата оправдали нападение, заявив, что
оно соответствовало духу "общественной и национальной
идеологии"",- отмечается в докладе.


В разделе документа о проблеме заключенных
авторы отмечают, что третьего октября 2012 г. Европейский комитет по
предотвращению пыток опубликовал доклад по итогам визита в Армению в декабре
2011 года, в котором говорилось, что не выполнена практически ни одна из
рекомендаций, сделанных после прошлых визитов и касавшихся условий содержания
лиц, приговорённых к пожизненному заключению.



В докладе упоминаются и "Свидетели
Иеговы", и в частности, проблема сознательного отказа от прохождения
воинской службы, в результате чего тюремные сроки отбывали более 30 человек.
"Альтернативная гражданская служба по-прежнему оставалась в ведении
вооружённых сил. Двадцать седьмого ноября Европейский суд по правам человека принял
четвёртое по счёту решение против Армении, касавшееся сознательного отказа, и
постановил, что Армения нарушила права 17 членов этой религиозной организации
(дело "Хачатрян и другие против Армении" - ред.). Суд пришёл к
выводу, что были нарушены права Свидетелей Иеговы на свободу и безопасность, а
также право на компенсацию за незаконное содержание под стражей", -
говорится в документе.
