The appointment of Agvan Ovsepyan as prosecutor-general can, in a way,
be regarded as "the restoration of justice", Armenian President Robert
Kocharyan said today in Yerevan. The president said this while
introducing Ovsepyan to employees of the Prosecutor-General's Office
today, Mediamax reports.
Kocharyan explained that Ovsepyan's resignation following the
terrorist act in the Armenian parliament in October 1999 "was caused
by exclusively political motives".
Kocharyan described the new prosecutor as a "professional,
tough-minded and stern" politician, noting that he had known him since
1981, as Ovsepyan had worked in Nagornyy Karabakh for many years.
