YEREVAN, JUNE 10, NOYAN TAPAN. Samvel Gevorgian - member of former
"Karabakh" committee, former chairman of the RA State Television and
Radio Committee, person in charge of Levon Ter-Petrosian's central
pre-election headquarters in Gegharkunik marz at the 2008 presidential
election - was arrested on June 10. According to a press release of the
National Movement's Center (NMC), on the same day L. Ter-Petrosian's
empowered person, deputy head of his pre-election headquarters in
Yerevan's Malatia-Sebastia community Bagrat Andreasian was invited
to the prosecutor's office and a charge was brought against him.
"The regime once again demonstrated that all its assurances about
resolving the situation are empty and false. These arrests have thrown
down a new challenge to the PACE that will discuss the results of
fulfilment of the requirements of resolution 1609 in two weeks. The
major requirement of the resolution - that for release of political
prisonsers has not been filfilled. Moreover, new persecutions and
arrests are being made for the same political reasons," is said in
the statement.
The NMC states that such conduct of the authorities straines even
more the current situation in the country and makes it difficult to
settle the political crisis.
