Heritage Holds Second Press Briefing, Welcomes Annulment of "Armenian
Watergate" Ruling
Yerevan--Today at the Court of Criminal Appeals a hearing was held regarding
the "Armenian Watergate"--the theft last year of constitutionally-protected
information from the computer database of Heritage Party's headquarters. In
the presence of party founder Raffi K. Hovannisian and attorney Zaruhi
Postanjian, the tribunal annulled the February 13 ruling of the Central and
Nork-Marash Court of First Instance. The appeals panel also decided to
return the instant case to the lower instant court for a substantive
reexamination of Hovannisian's complaint against the Armenian Prosecutor
General's office for its refusal to institute a criminal case with regard to
this Armenian version of the Watergate scandal.
Also today, Heritage Party spokesman Hovsep Khurshudian conducted the party's
second press briefing at Heritage campaign headquarters. He discussed recent
developments in the ongoing election campaign and gave a high assessment of
Heritage's two-day journey to the towns and villages of the Vayots Dzor and
Siunik marzes. Khurshudian took note of the artificial difficulties and
obstacles which the campaign still faces, specifically in the outlying
regions, with respect to the lawful public posting of campaign posters and
announcements. Accordingly, Heritage has dispatched a formal letter to the
Central Election Commission demanding a full explanation of these illegal
actions.
Tomorrow, Heritage will hold a citizens' assembly at the Government
Conference Facility near Republic Square. The event will begin at 2pm and is
open to the public.
Founded in 2002, Heritage has regional divisions throughout the land. Its
central office is located at 31 Moscovian Street, Yerevan 0002, Armenia,
with telephone contact at (374-10) 536.913, fax at (374-10) 532.697, email
