ArmInfo. 'If it is found out as a result of investigation that the
so- called special task force of Karabakh was really involved in
the March 1 operation against Armenian people, Nagorno-Karabakh
President Bako Sahakyan should be announced a persona non grata in
Armenia', the first president of Armenia Levon Ter- Petrosyan said
at a multi-thousand strong rally in the center of Yerevan, Friday.
According to him, dampening of the domestic political tension in
Armenia is possible only in case of thorough investigation of the
criminal actions of law-enforcers and officials on March 1 and the
release of all the political prisoners. 'A total of 130 supporters
of the Nationwide Movement were arrested, however, non of them is
accused of using arms or participating in pogroms. 4 participants
in robberies of shops were detained, one of them turned out to be a
friend of Robert Kocharyan's son, the other three were Serzh Sargsyan's
election agents. I call on the present authorities to arrest all the
robbers without doubting they will find not a single supporter of
opposition among them', Ter-Petrosyan said. He also expressed his
indignation at the fact that the relatives of the tragic events'
victims have not been acknowledged the assignees of the victims so
far. He called on the authorities 'to award a title of the national
hero of Armenia to all those who died during the massacre initiated
by Robert Kocharyan'. 'This concerns military men, too, as they are
also victims of the criminal regime', Ter-Petrosyan stressed.
