/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Armenian armed forces and police are charged
with the task to fulfill the Armenian President’s edict on imposition
of emergency rule in Yerevan, RA general staff chief, colonel general
Seyran Ohanyan told a news conference in Yerevan.
"The army did not interfere in dispersal of looter on March 1. It
serves as a shield between the people and police. Army shoots only if
the assaulters commence fire. Soldiers did not fire a single shot,"
he said, adding, "Army doesn’t deal with arrests, it is the law
enforcement’s duty."
