HAK Coordinator Levon Zurabyan today referred to yesterday’s vote
violations. "The authorities are doing their best for us to speak to
them in their language, i.e. in the language of violence and beating,"
said Mr. Zurabyan.

"The opposition is ready for abrupt steps but people should be
prepared, too. The most striking rigging came from Malatia-Sebastia
district," announced Mr. Zurabyan and handed the microphone to the
head of HAK’s pre-election office Vahagn Khachatryan.

"We witnessed the worst rigging in Malatia – starting from a voter’s
abduction to ballot stuffing. Everything was done to divert public
attention," said Mr. Khachatryan.

Vahagn Khachatrya thanked everyone who participated in the vote. The
opposition leaders remembered all those who were absent for good
reasons, including Nikol Pashinyan who celebrates his birthday on
June 1.
