Hetq's Balasanyan Wins "Freedom of Speech" Award

Hetq reporter Grisha Balasanyan won an investigative journalism award at this year’s Freedom of Speech ceremonies organized by the Asparez Journalists Club in Gyumri.

Balasanyan was especially noted for his series covering the financial assets of various Armenian officials and MPs.

For the past five years, the club has earmarked March 25 as Freedom of Speech day, commemorating the end of a public fundraising campaign to save Gyumri’s Gala TV from bankruptcy after being unfairly targeted by tax authorities in Armenia.

Gala TV provoked the wrath of the government after extensively covering 2008 post election developments in Armenia.
