YEREVAN, MARCH 19, NOYAN TAPAN. As a citizen of Armenia, Chairman of
Nor Zhamanakner Party Aram Karapetian has many questions to ask to
the authorities.
Stating this at the March 19 press conference, NZP Chairman also
said that RA Prosecutor General's Office either does not answer
parties' applications or gives answers not having legal grounds. And
A. Karapetian, for instance, would like to find out, whether it is
right that a non-registered sum of 6 mln USD is received from illegal
actions of Customs Service each month in Armenia, which is distributed
among officials of various levels in the future.
In A. Karapetian's words, NZP does not agree to the conclusion,
according to which the Armenian pilots are to blame for the accident
of A-320 plane which took place in 2006 May in Sochi. The party is
going to apply to RF Embassy in Armenia and Russian Foreign Ministry
with this issue. A. Karapetian said that a criminal case had been
instituted at RA Prosecutor General's Office in connection with this
case, but the results have not been published up to present.
NZP is also going to apply to U.S. Embassy in RA, U.S. State Department
and FBI with the issue of citizens of Armenia arrested last year in
U.S. with the accusation of illegal sale of arms. As A. Karapetian
mentioned, according to party's information, "many interesting people"
from Armenia are also involved in this case.
A. Karapetian also said that according to some rumors, resident of
Yerevan Hayk Israelian arrested lately as a defendant on the case of
murder of Shahen Hovasapian, Head of RA State Tax Service Investigation
Department, is connected with Levon Sargsian ("Lyov of Mill") who in
his turn stands close to Defence Minister Serge Sargsian. According
to the same rumors, the information on H. Israelian's participation
in the above mentioned crime has been provided to law enforcement
bodies by one of pro-governmental parties.
