During the Parliamentary assembly today a conflict aroused between
head of National Security Council Gorik Hakobyan and Minister of
Justice Hrayr Tovmasyan, when the latter was introducing a draft law
package, where it enlightened the ways of organizing demonstrations
and roles of rule keepers during the protests.
The propositions in the package obviously made the head of NSC Gorik
Hakobyan irritated.
`Should those European experts tell us how to behave during
protests?',-said G. Hakobyan interrupting Minister's speech.
Hrayr Tovmasyan answered that they should follow the rules and ask for
lawyers' opinion.
However, the argument got so tense that the microphones were turned
off on purpose.
In the end, PM Tigran Sargsyan interfered in the argument, obviously
taking minister's side.
`That draft law, by all means, has a political serious implication,
international experts also have worked on this', said Tigran Saygsyan
and advised both sides to discuss that argument one more time.
