ArmInfo. Authorities demonstrated and will further demonstrate a
different attitude to the organizers and provokers of the unrest in
Yerevan and to the participants that were misled or under the influence
of psychotropic agents, President of Armenia Robert Kocharyan said
at a press conference, Thursday.
He said many of the participants in the unrest have fully realized and
repented for what they did. Some of them have applied to the Police
on their own and now cooperate with the investigators. The inquiry
and the court will take into account this circumstance, of course,
the president said.
Robert Kocharyan outlined that it has become obvious now that
the unrest was organized starting from building barricades up to
robbing shops. Some criminal cases will be submitted to the court
shortly and will be considered summarily, which is stipulated by
the legislation. ‘Yerevan has always been one of the safest capital
cities in the world. This image has been seriously damaged. However,
we will do our best to restore it’, President of Armenia said.
