MOESCS Head on student`s arrest: Legislation provides for all  possibilities to protect the right to education, even in such  situations 

ArmInfo.The legislation provides for all possibilities to protect the right to education, even in  such situations. This is how Zhanna Andreasyan, Minister of Education, Science, Culture, and Sports, commented on the situation  of student David Minasyan being detained for two-months following the incident involving the Armenian Prime Minister at St. Anne's Church.

She noted that from the first days of his detention, these matters  were coordinated with the Ministry of Justice. "I believe that when  his health condition allows, his right to education will be ensured  from that moment," Andreasyan said. When asked whether the head of  the Ministry of Education, Science, and Culture would act as a  guarantor for a change in the young man's pretrial detention, as his  mother had requested in a written appeal, the Minister noted that the  relevant department is currently reviewing the request and conducting  discussions in accordance with established procedures. "This is a  matter that requires further study. We will respond in due course,"  she concluded.
