    Berdzor Incident: Karabakh police stop "hardliners" from Armenia

    The opposition Armenian National Congress (ANC) party has condemned the
    weekend incident in which members of a hardline opposition group known
    to be seeking a regime change in Armenia were stopped and roughed up
    by police while on their way to Nagorno-Karabakh.

    The Founding Parliament, a successor of the initiative called
    Pre-Parliament, said more than a dozen participants of its January 31
    automobile march were injured in what it described as an unprovoked
    attack by the police on the Goris-Stepanakert highway near Berdzor.

    About four dozen vehicles were turned away by the police and could
    not get into Nagorno-Karabakh to stage an announced "automobile
    march" there.

    The Nagorno-Karabakh Police said the law-enforcement bodies were
    acting out of public interests and were actually responding to
    people's concerns that the entry of Armenian opposition hardliners
    into Nagorno-Karabakh could lead to "mass disturbances".

    Strongly condemning "the violence against peaceful participants of
    an automobile march", the ANC said it was the latest in a chain of
    recent attacks on Karabakh war veterans and other public and political
    figures with opposition views, including several ANC members.

    "This chain [of attacks] shows that the regime that has suffered
    disgraceful failures in all spheres sees the only way of its salvation
    in the crazy idea of intimidating the public," the ANC said. "It is
    regretful that the violence that took place in Berdzor was committed
    by the NKR police... Apart from everything else, this fact may also
    have a very negative impact on the democratic rating of the NKR in
    the international arena."

    Meanwhile, the Founding Parliament also disseminated a 12-minute
    video showing the incident that was taken by a dashboard camera on
    one of the vehicles.
