  • Officials' Failure to Account For Reshuffle

    ARMENIAN WEB SITE CRITICAL OF OFFICIALS' FAILURE TO ACCOUNT FOR RESHUFFLE

    Golos Armenii web site, Yerevan
    29 Mar 04

    Personnel changes in the Armenian police (the chief of Yerevan's
    police directorate, Col Aram Zakharyan, has been promoted to chief of
    the department for state protection of the Armenian police; his
    replacement as Yerevan police chief is Col Nerses Nazaryan, former
    chief of the capital's Erebuni-Nubarashen police department. The chief
    of Yerevan's traffic police has also been replaced. This post has
    been taken over by Markar Oganyan, who until now was in charge of the
    State Traffic Police of Yerevan and the republic). Such changes in the
    law-enforcement agency and the Armenian Prosecutor-General's Office
    gave rise to numerous semi-truthful rumours (as published), which
    happens whenever those who take decisions do not bother to explain
    them.

    The opposition press rushed to explain the reshuffle and also the
    dismissal of some prosecutors in the capital's communities and their
    replacement by others by the upcoming actions of radicals to change
    power. Alas, neither the president, nor the justice minister nor the
    new prosecutor-general have so far commented on the dismissal of
    prosecutors.

    Under the presidential decrees, Akop Babayan has become the prosecutor
    of the Erebuni community (replaced Mikael Badiryan), Dzhon Farkhoyan
    has become the prosecutor of the Shengavit community (instead of
    Aleksandr Garibyan), Gevork Tovmasyan has become the prosecutor of the
    Avan and Nor-Nork communities (replaced Armen Sardaryan), Gagik
    Khachikyan has become the prosecutor of the Achapnyak and Davidashen
    communities (instead of Ovannes Stepanyan).
