    The atmosphere of phobia -one of the basic problems
    Armenia's Society needs to overcome

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The ruling authorities of the country have inherited
    from Soviet and post Soviet powers a repressive mechanism only. Today
    the basis for this repressive system is the Public Prosecutor's Office
    and the Intelligence Service of Armenia,' Armen Haroutyunyan, RA
    ombudsman for Human Rights protection of 2008 said during his
    speech. A vivid example of the repressive system is the style the
    Intelligence Service of RA works. A lot of people made to give
    evidence against their will or against the third party turn to the
    Institute for Human Rights Protection,' Haroutyunyan remarked.

    As the ombudsman said, all this results in the atmosphere of phobia
    and fear in society. `The citizens are threatened to be treated
    violently and most often the threats come from the employees of
    Intelligence Services and Public Prosecutor's Office. It is hard to
    speak about the presence of free Society since people are terribly
    frightened. The issue of overcoming the atmosphere of phobia is one of
    the basic problems of our society,' the ombudsman emphasized.
