    DESPITE REFUSAL OF MAYOR'S OFFICE, FEBRUARY 17 RALLY OF PRESIDENTIAL
    CANDIDATE ARTUR BAGHDASARIAN TO BE HELD IN AREA ADJACENT TO MATENADARAN


    YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 16, NOYAN TAPAN. Despite the refusal of Yerevan
    mayor's office, the RA presidential candidate Artur Baghdasarian will
    hold a rally in the area adjacent to the Matenadaran on February 17.

    According to a press release submitted to NT by the mayor's office,
    Yerevan mayor's office dicussed the notification sent by the
    pre-election headquarters of Artur Baghdasarian and proposed that the
    rally be held either in square adjacent to Yerevan railway station or
    in the area adjacent to Dinamo stadium on the day and at the hour
    indicated in the notification. The decision was made based on the RA
    Law on Meetings, Rallies, Processions and Demonstrations Article 13,
    Provision 1, Point 2 (another mass public event will be held on the
    indicated day, hour and place, which excludes the possibility of
    holding the given event; or another nonmass public event or some other
    event - about which notification was sent in order envisaged by the
    given law, which excludes the possibility of holding of the above
    mentioned event - will be held on the indicated day, hour and place),
    and based on Article 13 Provision 5 (if during discussion of
    notification, the authorized body decides that based on the same
    article's Provision 1 Part 4 there is a ground for banning the holding
    of the planned mass public event, then the authorized body shall
    propose that the event's organizer hold the mass public event in
    another place (on the day and at the hour indicated in the
    notification). The representative of the mayor said that he is ready to
    dicsuss another proposal made by the event organizers. But this
    proposal was not accepted by the organizers who said that regardless of
    the decision taken by the mayor's office, they will hold a rally in the
    area adjacent to the Matenadaran on the day and at the hour indicated
    in the notification.

    The mayor's office informs that it also received a notification about a
    rally to be held in the area adjacent to the Matenadaran on February 17
    from representatives of the pre-election headquarters of the RA
    presidential candidate Levon Ter-Petrosian. For the same reasons, it
    was proposed holding a rally in another place - near Monument to Vardan
    Mamikonian and this proposal was accepted by the event organizers.

    A rally of the presidential candidate, Armenian prime minister is
    scheduled for the same day. It will be held in Freedom Square.
