/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Heritage Parliamentary Faction representative, CE
Parliamentary Assembly (PACE) RA Delegation member Zaruhi Postangyan
addressed a letter to PACE Monitoring Committee Head Serhi Kholovati,
expressing her dissatisfaction with fulfillment manner of PACE
recommendations, worked out for Armenia on the basis of resolution
on last year’s March events.
"Prosecutor General’s Office and RA judicial authority failed to
organize a fair judicial procedure on March disorders, resulting in
10 people’s death and 200 being injured. Moreover, the authorities
are reluctant to start serious investigation on these tragic events,"
the letter says.
In her letter Zaruhi Postangyan reminded that court verdicts were given
based on police officers evidence. She also reminded that until now,
RA President hasn’t used his constitutional right to grant amnesty
to those involved in March events, like PACE recommendations advised.
In conclusion, Zaruhi Postangyan noted that "imperfections in RA
Election Code, pressure towards Media representatives, lack of free
speech and restrictions in meetings and rallies’ organization, set
a foundation for unfair, unequal and non-transparent elections into
Yerevan Council of Elders."
