OMBUDSMAN IS DEFENCELESS
Today the party «New Times» invited the political powers to represent them
the draft defending the Ombudsman. Those invited were offered two drafts,
where the main idea was as follow, «We strictly condemn any encroachment
towards the Ombudsman Institute which is the visiting card of the democratic
countries. We consider it another intervention of the criminal elements into
the political processes».
Let us remind you that the Ombudsman has disagreements with the both with
the legislative and with the executive powers. There have been different
encroachments towards the structure recently. In Particular, on May 26
Larissa Alaverdyan’s co-worker Serob Antinyan was arrested, and that very
day the processor of one of the computers in the office where precious
information was kept disappeared.
Although there were different ideas about the drafts, the overwhelming
majority of the political parties offered that the Ombudsman must be
defended as `attacking’ the state institute trying to act within the
framework of law is already becoming a habit.
Let us also add that the announcement of the parties in defence of the
Ombudsman will be ready in a week.
