    Armenia probing election-related offenses - spokeswoman

    YEREVAN Feb 1


    Armenia's Office of Prosecutor General has put together three
    criminal cases in response to 17 complaints made in relation to the
    February 19 presidential election. Some complaints have been thrown
    out while others are still under investigation, the office
    spokeswoman said.

    One of the cases follows an assault on presidential candidate Artur
    Bagdasarian's campaign office in the town of Vanadzor, Sona Truzian
    told Interfax.

    A second case is a response to a physical fight between an adversary
    and supporters of another candidate, former president Levon
    Ter-Petrosian, during a speech he was making in the town of Talin on
    January 27.

    The third follows an incident in which approximately 150 to 200 cars
    that were accompanying Ter-Petrosian's car ended up continuously
    blowing their car horns, driving on the wrong side of the road and
    ignoring demands by traffic police as they were driving through the
    heart of Yerevan.
