August 07, 2013 | 13:30
YEREVAN. - A ban on installing a tent or a sunshade for activists
holding a sit-in strike near Yerevan municipality is a manifestation
of fascist nature of state officials, the opposition representative
claims.
"You have to be a misanthrope not to let put up a tent in the heat,"
Heritage party member Stepan Safaryan said.
An activist Anna Kaghinyan noted that during a protest several
activists had health problems because of the heat and were
hospitalized.
"Activists continue to fight, because the decisions of the mayor to
raise fares have not been canceled. The decision was suspended and
at any time the mayor can get them back," she said.
She noted that Ombudsman's office has been stating for two weeks that
they make every effort for the authorities to set up a tent. However,
these efforts have not led to the expected result.
