    HOMOSEXUAL SCANDAL IN ARMENIA's POLITICAL ELITE


    YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 30. ARMINFO. A homosexual scandal has broken out in
    Armenia's political elite. Parliamentarians came to calling one
    another gays, and homosexualism became a subject of serious
    discussions and comments in the ruling elite.

    Today's briefing at the RA National Assembly focused on the subject
    and on the possibility of gays being members of the ruling elite. The
    member of the "People's Deputy" Hakob Hakobyan publicly called
    Vice-Chairman of the "Law-Governed Country" party, Chairman of the
    Parliamentary Commission for Defense, National Security and internal
    Affairs Mher Shahgelsyan a homosexual, stating that he can present
    proofs in court. In his turn, Shahgeldyan denied the claim. "Hakob
    Hakobyan's claim is a filthy lie. He just could not discredit me in
    another, as I have a stainless reputation. Nobody would believe him if
    he accused me of financial embezzlements, bribery, changing party
    affiliation, so he decided to discredit me in this way," Shahgeldyan
    said. "After this claim Hakobyan has to have a man-to-man talk,"
    Shahgelsyan said. He pointed out that he does not consider it
    advisable to apply to court now.

    The scandal broke out yesterday, Hakobyan demanded that Parliament
    Speaker, Chairman of the "Law-Governed Country" party Artur
    Baghdasaryan present an annual report on the Parliament's
    expenses. According to him, even Vice-Speakers Tigran Torosyan
    (Vice-Chairman of the Republican Party of Armenia) and Vahan
    Hovhannesyan (ARF Board member) agreed with him. Hakobyan demanded
    that the Speaker report on the spending of the additional 65,000 USD
    provided to the Parliament by the RA Government. The Speaker did not
    satisfied Hakobyan's demand, which aroused the latter's
    indignation. He began swearing at the Speaker and the Head of the
    Parliament staff, claiming that "persons that came to Parliament in
    T-shirts are now driving armored Jeeps'." Hakobyan stated that he is
    even ready to transgress law for the people's benefit. Then he made a
    shocking claim that Vice-Chairman of the "Law-Governed Country" party
    Mher Shahgelsyan is a "gay." It is noteworthy that the reason for
    active talks about homosexualism in Armenia's political elite is a
    statement made by Chairman of the "Armenian-Aryan Order" party Armen
    Avetiosyan that some of the Armenian minister and parliamentarians are
    gays, and he intends to publish their names soon.
