Summing up his 100 days in office, human rights ombudsman Armen
Haroutunyan said that 770 complaints were received during that time,
550 of which in written form. "There are not many complaints from the
regions, only several dozens," he said. He is, however, sure that the
low number of complaints from the regions is connected with technical
problems. It does not mean that people in the region have nothing to
compain on human rights.
In the words of the ombudsman, 3 months are not long enough to make
statistical analyses. So, he prefered to bring statistics after
6 months. However, he said almost half of the complaints are not
related to his authority. Therefore, they are just ignored.
A. Harutunyan also said that most letters do not address a specific
public official but name the structure in which he/she works. However,
the ombudsman assured that they send official letters to the mentioned
structures to solve the issues raised.
