self-affirmation attempt

/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Any statement or assessment made by the human rights
defender should base on legal facts, the Prosecutor General’s Office
said in a statement posted on its website.
`If he doesn’t produce facts, his behavior resembles personal
propaganda. The Ombudsman has no right to represent the Prosecutor
General’s Office as a repressive structure basing on complaints he
receives,’ the statement says.
Presenting his annual report yesterday, the Ombudsman said `he is
worried that citizens are subjected to tortures in prisons.’
`Accusations without facts prompt lack of professionalism. Such
behavior looks as a self-affirmation attempt,’ the Prosecutor
General’s Office said.
