Yerevan-Heritage founder Raffi K. Hovannisian, the party's executive
board members, and fellow citizens gathered today in front of the
Armenian prosecutor general's office. They demanded an official
response from the prosecutor general with respect to bringing
criminal charges for the unlawful March break-in to the party's
central headquarters and the ensuing theft of information from its
computer system.
Two hours into the assembly, held under the banner of "Truth and
Right," Heritage board chairman Vardan Khachatrian and attorney Zaruhi
Postanjian received a formal letter from prosecutor Karapet Karapetyan
of the Department for the Protection of State Interests.
The letter confirmed that all decisions of the Yerevan city police
department and prosecutor's office, which had previously refused to
institute a criminal case against the "mysterious" computer bandits,
have now been revoked, and an additional inquiry has been launched
by the prosecutor general's office.
"All the details of this 'presidential' parade of criminal acts, which
together form a single web among the White House, the Service for
Mandatory Execution of Judicial Acts, the management of the Paronian
State Theater and the nation's judicial system, must be revealed
through a courageous determination to file criminal charges and to
carry out a full investigation," Raffi Hovannisian said.
"Notwithstanding the 'instructions from above' to cover up this
scandalous reproduction of the Watergate precedent in Armenia, we
expect that the Republic's prosecutor general will finally step in
to defend the constitutional rights of its citizens."
