    AND PERSECUTIONS LATER

    07:10 pm 07 March, 2006

    "This outrageous operation against the Heritage Party and its leader is
    one further link in the chain of a new campaign of threats,
    intimidation, and introductory terror carried out by the incumbent
    presidency and its security apparatus," - that's how charP0cterizes the
    press service of the party the incident which happened several days
    ago.

    Let's remind that on March 4, 2006, an anonymous telephone caller
    informed Heritage Party officials that `agents from the KGB are breaking
    the entrance door' of Heritage's headquarters located at 7 Vazgen
    Sargsian Street in the center of the capital. Responding to the call,
    party representatives arrived at the scene and witnessed the process of
    replacement of the entrance door's already-smashed lock.

    According to the message, the incident is connected with opposional
    activities of the leader of `Heritage' Raffi Hovhannisian:"Notably, this
    campaign has followed on the heels of Raffi Hovannisian's recent public
    activity, citizens' initiatives and freely expressed opinions, and has
    been launched through the use of large-scale technologies of slander by
    the state-supervised propaganda machine and its stooges against the
    long-standing institutions of high repute headed by Raffi and Armenouhi
    Hovannisian. In this latest chapter, the `party of power' aims to
    paralyze Heritage's activities in advance of parliamentary elections and
    other developments of interest. It is not to be ruled out that the
    acting authority, based on its own fear and lack of public legitimacy,
    will continue its policies of persecution with imaginary, trumped-up
    charges to be made against the party and its members."
