Amnesty International issued a statement urging Armenia's authorities
to investigation voter fraud and intimidation during the presidential
elections.
`Today, as thousands of Armenian citizens are gathering at the Freedom
square in Yerevan to protest against election fraud, Amnesty
International is calling the Armenian authorities to investigate
election related human rights violations,' the statement reads.
`International intergovernmental observers' generally positive
assessment of Armenia's 18 February Presidential Election and the
preceding campaign season should not be interpreted by Yerevan as to
ignore reports of human rights violations related to elections,' the
Amnesty International said.
Amnesty International calls on the relevant authorities to carry out
prompt and impartial investigations into all allegations of rights
violations during the elections and hold those responsible to account.
The authorities must also guarantee the safety of participants at
post-election protests and public meetings.
