This is concealment at the highest state level. With this, the authorities sought to make sure they don’t lose any votes during the elections. This is what representative of the opposition “Armenia” bloc Arpine Hovhannisyan said during today’s briefing, commenting on the sensational photos and videos showing the bodies of servicemen wrapped in plastic bags. According to her, it’s hard to imagine that something like this could have happened.

“This is a matter of political, legal and moral responsibility. From the legal perspective, dismissing an official is not a sufficient justification. We are dealing with mockery of bodies. A criminal case had to be launched immediately. I don’t think Nikol Pashinyan didn’t know about this. All questions need to be addressed to the law-enforcement authorities,” she said.

Yesterday the presses disseminated photos, and later, videos were disseminated on the Internet showing the remains of deceased servicemen that had been thrown on the floor in the morgue of a tuberculosis hospital in the city of Abovyan.
