NIGHT ASSAULT WITNESSES COMMENTING ON POLICE’S LIBELOUS STATEMENT
The rally participants denounced the police statement about bottles with
explosives and stones thrown by demonstrators as a malign slander.
Plastic bottles with water were in hands of protesters, they explain. They
find the police statement about stones absolutely ridiculous, as there is
not a single stone on Baghramyan Avenue.
They insist the police assaulted innocent marchers without any illegal move
from their side.
Witnesses say elderly women, young people, journalists and cameramen were
thrown down over the night. The authorities do everything to suppress the
truth.
