FOR THE FIRST TIME WE WILL SEE VERY IMPORTANT PROCESS IN THE
POLITICAL SPHERE

Aram Karapetyan, one of the leaders of the anti-criminal movement
stated October 26 that the movement is likely to hold hearings on the
economic monopolies in Armenia. Soon penitentiaries will appear
within the orbit of the practical interest of the anti-criminal
because there are worrying facts about their activities.

`I think there are several very important problems, which interest us
as well. Namely, we want to know about the situation in the
penitentiaries, there is information that many people are released on
orders. There is information that well-known criminals are released
early after forensic and psychological examinations,’ says Aram
Karapetyan.

Besides released criminals, the anti-criminal will also deal with the
criminals at large, of course, if it continues to consider Prime
Minister Andranik Margaryan as a criminal. Aram Karapetyan announces
that they will inquire about how many people the prime minister gave
gift guns and whom he gave. `We would like to know how many these
are. We ask the police to provide this information to us, and we also
want to know how many of these guns were used. If there are cases of
murder, shooting, how many of them, and if it is true that he gave
500 gift guns. If it is true that he gave a gift gun to an
adolescent,’ says Aram Karapetyan.

He assured that the anti-criminal movement continues its activity,
everyone takes part. The leader of the Nor Zhamanakner Party says
that soon we will hear about interests things in the political sphere
and for the first time we will see a very important process. `The
opposition has not pursued such a process so far.’ According to Aram
Karapetyan, these are public hearings, round-table meetings replacing
the tactics of rallies, where clear professional evaluations are
given to all the questions.
