The Zartonk (Awakening) National Christian Party is also challenging the results of the June 20 snap parliamentary elections in the Constitutional Court of Armenia.

The top court received the party’s election appeal on Friday, its spokeswoman Eva Tovmasyan said on Facebook.

In an official statement, the party indicated the basic principles of suffrage enshrined in the Constitution of Armenia, freedom and equality, have been violated during the elections.

It said the hateful and violent rhetoric, the misuse of administrative resources, as well as other violations affected the outcome of the elections.

The Constitutional Court earlier received an appeal of the Armenia bloc asking the court to overturn the election results.
