    ARMENIAN OMBUDSPERSON: OFFICERS OF NATIONAL SECURITY SERVICE OF ARMENIA KEEP DISCREDITING THE STATE

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ At 10:30 a.m. today officers of the National Security
    Service (NSS) of Armenia came to a limited company engaged in legal
    counseling and introduced themselves as if they were officers of the
    Ombudsperson's staff, Armenian Ombudsperson Larisa Alaverdian stated
    in the course of an on-line interview with OpenArmenia.com. Then,
    in her words, by means illegal methods, including attempts to use
    coercion, they tried to frighten the staff of the company with a
    "document" not having legal force "to invite" the head and the staff
    of the company to the NSS "for a conversation". Getting a competent
    and worthy response and not having managed to explain the attempt to
    get information on the complaints of persons, who have addressed both
    the company and the Ombudsperson, by deception and fraud in any way,
    they insensibly disappeared. At that they did not take the statement
    of the company head on the happening, though it was already sent
    via mail, being addressed to the NSS head. "The fact evidences that
    the information that was kept in the processor, withdrawn from the
    Office of the Ombudsperson, was available to the NSS and is already
    being used for pressure upon other subjects of the society, including
    commercial ones," she stated. "Thus, it is not ruled out that the
    information will be used for pressure upon citizens also in the
    future," the Ombudsperson proved. As of the incident of withdrawal
    of the processor, letters to the Armenian Prime Minister, President,
    National Assembly Chairman are prepared: these describe and qualify
    the occurrence and propose taking respective measures at the state
    level to prevent similar incidents in the future. At that she noted
    that such actions have a least negative impact upon the activities
    of the human rights institution.
