Electoral authorities in Armenia have invalidated the official
results of Sunday’s municipal elections in another three Yerevan
precincts and asked prosecutors to investigate what they said was
serious fraud committed there. In particular, the CIC invalidated
the election results at polling stations 8/01, 8/03 and 8/05.

Remind that all of those polling stations appeared in the focus of
Prosecutor-General’s Office, mass media and independent observers
who reported vast number of irregularities on election day.+

The Special Investigative Service (SIS), a law-enforcement agency
subordinated to the prosecutors, launched criminal proceedings
into fraud reported by Armenian media in the above-said polling
stations. The ballot sacks were recorded open after being sealed.

Remind that, on June 4 the CEC invalidated the election results
at polling stations 7/7, 7/9, 8/15 on the basis of corresponding
documents and vote protocols.
