Dear Sir :
We have learned with concern the detention by the National Security Service of July 27 great patriot, Ara Alec Yenikomshian. Mr. Yenikomshian has for decades been engaged in charity work in Armenia and the improvement of a country he loves more than anything else. He dedicated his life to the good of the Armenian homeland, and was one of the closest and most trusted comrades of your former comrade in arms,
the Armenian national hero Monte Melkonian. Despite the suffering of its major physical injuries he suffered in the process of his patriotic activities, Alec continues to work for the benefit of Armenia. Mr. Yenikomshian is an extraordinary patriot, conscientious and dedicated civil debate and legality, the peaceful improvement of institutions. We join the many others who ask that he be released immediately from the custody.
Respectfully,
Maile Melkonian
Markar Melkonian
Marcia Melkonian
Seta Melkonian-Kbranian
