    CEC BROKE THE LAW

    01/12/09

    The candidate at constituency NO. 10 Hmayak Hovhanisyan running
    for NA election stated on December 1 that the Central Electoral
    Commission committed an illegality deciding the date of the election
    on January 10.

    Hmayak Hovhannisyan says in accordance with the RA electoral code,
    elections for a vacant NA post have to be held within 80 days after its
    becoming vacant. This day, according to Hovhanisyan, marks on December
    19 because Khachatur Sukiasyan's mandate was freed on October 1.

    He wonders about the reason why CEC decided to set the election on
    a day when the society is in New Year's moods when no newspaper is
    published. Hmayak Hovhannisyan thinks this is an obstacle for normal
    process of the electoral campaign for which the electoral code provides
    for responsibility.

    Hovhannisyan pointed out another illegality. Again, in accordance
    with the electoral code the electoral campaign is to start on the
    next day of the end of the registration of candidates that is on
    December 7 and to end one day before the election. But one of the
    candidates Vova Kostanyan started his campaign on November 20 in
    Charles Aznavour square.

    In answer to reporters' remark that Vova Kostanyan who said to have
    revealed Hmayak Hovhanisyan has already withdrawn his candidacy,
    Hovhannisyan said instead there are CEC and the Yerevan City Hall
    who illegally authorized Kostanyan's rally allowing him to insult
    Hmayak Hovhannisyan.
