    PROSECUTOR GENERAL CANNOT SEE LINK SEEN BY TER-PETROSYAN

    Armenia

    During the rally on February 9 the first president of Armenia Levon
    Ter-Petrosyan revealed an agreement on exchange of Meghri for the
    independence of Karabakh which he says was on the table of the talks
    for the settlement of the Karabakh issue, was approved by Vardan
    Oskanyan, Serge Sargsyan and Robert Kocharyan, and opposed by Karen
    Demirchyan and Vazgen Sargsyan. Levon Ter-Petrosyan stated that their
    opposition was the motive of assassination of Karen Demirchyan and
    Vazgen Sargsyan at the hall of the parliament on October 27. The first
    president also said the investigation had not studied this motive
    because the agreement on Meghri was confidential, and now when he
    has revealed it, the investigation will study it.

    On February 12 Prosecutor General Aghvan Hovsepyan held a news
    conference at his office, and the reporters used the opportunity to
    get comment from the Office of Prosecutor General on this issue, to
    know if now that the intention to exchange Meghri has been revealed,
    and there is a statement that it was the cause of October 27, the
    Office of Prosecutor General will try to find out the truth of those
    circumstances.

    Prosecutor General Aghvan Hovsepyan said the question that he is asked
    is outside the legal sphere and if the authors of the statement had
    offered the criminal and legal aspects of the problem, they would
    certainly take them into consideration. Generally, Prosecutor General
    Aghvan Hovsepyan thinks that October 27 is manipulated too much. He
    says the office of prosecutor general has given a lot of explanations
    and the families of the victims have never appealed against those
    explanations. Aghvan Hovsepyan says recently October 27 has been
    turned into a political instrument.

    He says if anyone possesses any facts, they are always ready to
    listen to and study them. In answer to the question whether Levon
    Ter-Petrosyan's definite statement that the cause of October 27 was
    the exchange of Meghri will not be studied by the office of prosecutor
    general, Aghvan Hovsepyan said he finds no link between them. Aghvan
    Hovsepyan said he can see no relation between them.

    Aghvan Hovsepyan said he can see no relation between October 27 and
    Meghri, and he thinks it is a vague message.
