On July 6 the National Assembly discussed President Kocharyan's
proposal on general amnesty and adopted it on July 7. As we have
already informed, 300 people will be released.
There was only one change in the decision on general amnesty. The
representative of the president Davit Harutiunyan, Minister of Justice,
offered to include Article 268 of the Criminal Code as well, namely
defiling cemeteries and dead bodies. Amnesty will be granted to persons
who committed a crime before June 1, 2006, convicts sentenced to 3-5
years of imprisonment, inmates aged over 60, disabled convicts of
categories 2 and 3.
