    BENEFITS THE PROSECUTOR'S OFFICE FIRST?

    RA Prosecutor General Aghvan Hovsepyan received today newly appointed
    Special Representative of the CE Secretary General to Armenia Silva
    Jehe.

    According to the prosecutor's office press release, the sides discussed
    the legal-juridical reforms, process of completion of the 1609 and
    1620 resolutions of the CE Monitoring Commission and the cooperation
    between the prosecutor's office, the NA temporary commission and the
    fact-finding group.

    The RA Prosecutor General presented in general the process, results
    and difficulties of the preliminary investigation of the case on the
    mass events of March 1 and gave a high evaluation of the formation
    of the fact-finding group.

    "The fact-finding group's activity is first and foremost to the benefit
    of the prosecutor's office," assured the Prosecutor General noting that
    the prosecutor's office will be grateful if the fact-finding group
    manages to get new facts, which will contribute to the clarification
    of the 10 murder cases and physical injuries of 250 people and the
    revelation of the criminals.

    Hovsepyan added that during the 6 months of preliminary investigation
    the prosecutor's office has filed 89 criminal cases regarding 104
    individuals and nearly 10 of the cases are in the inquiry stage. Seven
    people are currently under preliminary imprisonment and only one
    accused has managed to get acquainted with the materials for the
    criminal case in the course of 50 days.

    Considering the persecutions for political views or activities as
    impermissible, the RA Prosecutor General noted that the principle
    laid in the groundwork of the Monitoring Commission's resolution
    is diverged and an attempt is being made to conceal the crimes. A
    person can not be brought to justice for political actions, but that
    doesn't mean that the person involved in political activities can
    not be brought to justice for committing a criminal act.
