Yerevan, 7 August: Armenia’s Police has denied the report of mass
voluntary resignations from the Police, published by the Yerevan-based
[pro-opposition] Haykakan Zhamanak newspaper.
Such an allegation is groundless, the statement issued by the
press service of the Police said. In fact, a number of members of
staff have recently been dismissed for different reasons – due to
retirement or illness, or they actually voluntarily quit their jobs
in the Police. At the same time, the number of those willing to work
in the Police is several times greater than the number of those who
have quit. In conclusion, the press service of the Police advised
the paper to be more objective and conscientious.
