Letter to Chief Procurator Hovsepiyan

I write to express our concern regarding the harassment of Militza Birg, a forty-five year old dual citizen of Austria and Yugoslavia, by a Erebuni District procuracy official. Human Rights Watch believes that Ms. Birg was threatened by the procuracy official in an attempt to dissuade her from inquiring into the disappearance of her husband, Mushegh Minasyan, a forty-four-year-old Armenian citizen, from his home in Yerevan in June.
