AUTHORITIES RESORTED TO PROVOCATIONS
Justice opposition bloc representatives Albert Bazeyan, Victor Dallakyan and
Grigor Harutyunyan spoke mainly about Sunday's incident in Gyumri.
The politicians are sure that the incident occurred at a rally held Sunday
in Armenian town of Gyumri is nothing more than provocation orchestrated by
the republic's authorities. The police appeared as a conflicting side
instead of fulfilling their direct duty of keeping order, they said.
The opposition activist said no investigation has been launched into the
police conduct so far but a series of raids on some Gyumri residents'
houses. Nine people are already arrested in the raids. It is not ruled out
the police to charge them.
Bazeyan said there are video record of the incident and witnesses testifying
that eggs and explosives were given by policemen and municipality officials.
Justice bloc members say the city bosses staged fake funeral in an apparent
attempt to bar them from conducting their meeting with their constituents.
Cortege and all funeral attributes but the dead were used.
