YEREVAN, JULY 29, NOYAN TAPAN. RA National Assembly deputy Khachatur
Sukiasian being searched for is not going to present himself to
the authorities by 2009 July 31 as he is more than convinced of his
innocence and has no doubt that justice will win after all. A July
29 statement by K. Sukiasian and his lawyers Artur Grigorian and Ara
Zakarian read.
According to K. Sukiasian, he has no problem with presenting himself
to the authorities as he has committed no crime, besides, he is not
deprived of deputy immunity. "I do not think that there will be a
person in Armenia, who will prove any fact that I have committed a
crime," the deputy said.
And K. Sukiasian’s lawyers consider that the process undertaken
by international structures, in particular, by PACE, has not been
brought to its logical end yet and the adoption of the amnesty act
by the authorities in itself does not mean and cannot be commented
as a complete fulfillment of the commitments they have towards Mr
Sukiasian and his partners. According to the lawyers, the issue of
completely stopping political persecutions to obviously innocent
persons will be sooner or later set before the authorities.
