YEREVAN, APRIL 11, NOYAN TAPAN. The police is continuing its former
mode of action after the inauguration of Serge Sargsian: a number
of citizens are again brought to police stations. This statement was
made by Stepan Safarian, the Secretary of the Zharangutiun (Heritage)
faction of the National Assembly, at the April 11 parliamentary
briefing, according to whom, four citizens (he mentioned the names)
were brought to police stations from their beds on the same day and
were accused of having taken part in the rallies. They also tried
to take another young man, who is currently in the Kentron police
station, to a police station from the mourning march held on April 9,
however the people managed to defend him from policemen.
The MP also mentioned the fact that no hall has been given to the
Sargis Tkhruni Student Union, which is the youth wing of the Social
Democratic Hnchakian Party of Armenia, for holding a conference. In
his words, the Union was going to hold a conference on the regulation
of the Armenian-Turkish relations, to which the representatives of
all the parliamentary factions were invited.
Not excluding that all this is being conducted without the knowledge
of the newly-elected President of the country, Stepan Safarian stated
that, however, such steps contradict the promises given in the speech
of Serge Sargsian, which the latter promised to immediately turn
into action.
According to the MP, the Zharangutiun faction expects from the new
President not only to change the force ministers, but also to punish
all those, who have fired at the people.
