ARMENIAN OMBUDSMAN CRITICIZES AMENDMENTS TO MEDIA LAW AS "REGRESSIVE"
Public Television of Armenia
October 3, 2008 Friday
The ombudsman received 2,845 complaints in the past nine months:
79 of them were settled positively, rights of 178 individuals were
restored. Armen Harutyunyan described as regressive the latest
amendments to the law on TV and radio, according to which tenders
for broadcast licenses were suspended until 2010. He said the right
to property has surfaced again: residents of Balayants and Teryan
streets have sought his help because assessment companies quote their
property lower than market price.
