The announcement of the leader of the political party Nor Zhamanakner
(New Times) Aram Karapetyan, that there are 6 police and 8 national
security agents in his party, whose names and aliases will soon be
published, aroused great interest in political circles. The Democratic
Party suggested that Aram Karapetyan display his ability to unmask
agents. On April 27 at the Pastark Club Aram Karapetyan briefly
explained the technique of revealing agents, “One needs to have money,
not to take the money home. The struggle should be serious and one
needs to have their own network of agents.”

Aram Karapetyan says he learns about every decision made by force
agencies within an hour, sometimes without money. For instance, recent
information from the National Security Service. During the meeting
of the college of the National Security Service the chiefs of two
departments complained of law salaries. In answer the leadership told
them to live on whatever they can. Aram Karapetyan asks, “Imagine,
for instance, the department of reconnaissance lives on whatever
they can – catches a spy, extorts money and lets him go free.” Aram
Karapetyan assures that Robert Kocharyan watched the video of the
raid of the National Security Service and after the second watching
the president said, “Aram Karapetyan is a difficult case.” Whereas,
the force agencies are not supposed to become engaged in political
developments. On April 28 Aram Karapetyan invited to a rally and
a march; among other slogans the phrase “Gorik, go away” will be
chanted. Gorik is the chief of the National Security Service Gorik
Hakobyan.
