Abstract
Medzen Murad, Hamopartsoum Boyaydjain (born in Hadjin in 1867, hanged in Cesaria in
1915) is one of the most renowned and popular figures of the Armenian Liberation movement. His revolutionary life starts in Constantinople in 1890, and he is one of the key organizers of the Kum Kapu vigil. In 1892 Murad is the central figure of the Sasun revolutionary movements and heads the first rebellion of Sasun in 1893-94.
The authorities imprison and torture him in various prisons in Turkey. In 1896 he is exiled to Tripoli in Libya, but in 1906 he escapes from prison.
During his exile the Social Democrat Henchag Party 5t convention elects Murad as a member of its Central Committee. The author underlines that this was an unprecedented and unrepeated act in the history of the Armenian revolutionary movement and questions what had made Murad's colleagues so sure that he would escape prison.
The author notes that Murad was very popular and enjoyed the love of the Armenian nation; there are examples of several groups that worked towards his liberation. The author discloses three letters from the Party archives, written by the Party Central Committee. One of the letters is directly addressed to Murad while he was in prison in Libya in 1902.
Finally, using diverse data, the author paints a detailed picture of the escape of Murad from prison, giving the two theories of the escape.
