The assistant of the police station head Ararat Mahtesyan brought
examples from the new Government resolution trying to prove that the
coming elections will be fair in Armenia due to their institution. By
using the word “fair” Mr. Mahtesyan meant only one thing; the lists of
electorals will be checked and corrected, the names of dead, prisoners
and people without registration won’t be included. The law violators
cannot vote instead of them.
The precedent of fair elections was as follows. The police will arm
all the passport and visa departments, will create a mechanism of
information exchange by means of computer and will make an accurate
list of residents. Then they will type the lists of electorals.
According to the new decision the police already know the addresses
of all responsible people who will be punished for not informing them
the data of dead, prisoners and absentees in time.
The program is worked out with the Ministry of Transportation and
Communication. Mahtesyan promised to invite the parties and journalists
to get acquainted with program in 3 months’ time. Mahtesyan said
that the project was valued 100 million AMD by the Executive Body
and concluded, “The Government intends to hold fair elections.”
Ararat Mahtesyan did not spoke about the tense criminal situation in
the country and the recent assaults. He only said, “Your question must
be answered by the person promising to divulge them within a month.”
