ONLY TO EXPRESS CONCERN

Will the OSCE help to reveal the murder cases in the army? "The
OSCE can't conduct an investigation. That is a problem for the local
authorities, especially the prosecutor general and the police to solve
and it doesn't fit in our mandate," told "A1+" Head of the OSCE office
in Yerevan, Ambassador Sergey Kapinos. He noted that in such cases,
if the issue at hand fits in the OSCE mandate, they can raise the
issue in corresponding state structures, clarify the situation and
express concern if necessary.
Let us remind that early this week the OSCE and the RA Ombudsman's
office signed a contract with the purpose of setting order in the
armed forces.
"The contract foresees professional aid, which will help to analyze
the cases of order in the army, clarify the current issues and find
out whether or not they correspond to international standards, as
well as observe the complaints and appeals connected with the rules
and regulations of the army," said Sergey Kapinos.
Let us mention that during last week's parliamentary session NA
"Heritage" faction deputy Anahit Bakhshian had made a proposal to
form a temporary committee on the investigation of the murder cases of
the soldiers upon the request of the parents of the deceased soldiers.
"We also talked to the president of the NA standing human rights
committee, but Zaruhi Postanjyan must address us in written form,"
told "A1+" Anahit Bakhshian.
