WE CAN’T SAY IT’S WORSE IN ARMENIA

The rights of the victims are best of all protected
in Austria, Belgium and Great Britain. And worst of
all? `It is hard to answer that question, but there
are countries which have carried out protection of the
rights of victims for decades and naturally they have
more progress than others’, said Minister of Justice
David Haroutyunyan. According to him, Austria, Belgium
and Great Britain have many things to teach other
countries, including Armenia.

`The protection of the rights of victims is still on a
low level in Armenia’, said Minister of Justice David
Haroutyunyan. In the 27th conference of Ministers of
Justice of the CoE countries which took place on
October 11-13 the Ministers agreed to pay more
attention to victims of crimes who have psychological,
social and economic or physical hardships. David
Haroutyunyan claimed that in some two months Armenia
will have progress in protecting victims.

The next Conference of the CoE Ministers of Justice
will take place on the Canary islands.
