`Crime rate in Yerevan has grown in 2008: 600 cases more as compared to
2007,’ Chief of Yerevan Police Department, Major General Nerses
Nazaryan told a press conference today. He noted also that trends of
crime growth have been registered also at the beginning of the current
year.

As for media releases that the situation in Yerevan is not controlled
and shots can be heard periodically, Nerses Nazaryan said the situation
is under control and they do their best to ensure peace in Yerevan.

As for the information that his son is going to be appointed head of
Avan Community after the elections of May 31, Nerses Nazaryan
responded: `My son currently works as Adviser to the Head of Arabkir
Community. He is 23 and has no such aspirations. If he had the
intentions, his name would be the first or the second in the list. The
question is not discussed, but my son would work very well if he were
Head of Community.’
