ZHIRAYR SEFILIAN DEPRIVED OF OPPORTUNITY TO APPLY TO APPROPRIATE BODIES
TO RECEIVE CITIZENSHIP
YEREVAN, MAY 7, NOYAN TAPAN. In order to be granted citizenship of the
Republic of Armenia, one should apply to the RA Passport and Visa
Department in person and fill in an application-questionnaire and a
test on knowledge of the Constitution, whereas Zhirayr Sefilian has no
such opportunity as he is in prison. The head of the RA Police Passport
and Visa Department, Colonel Alvina Zakarian said this in response to a
reporter's question. The commander of the Shoushi special battalion Z.
Sefilian recently applied through his plenipotentiary to the department
with the request to be granted citizenship, but his application has
been rejected.
In the words of A. Zakarian, Z. Sefilian's earlier application with the
same request was also rejected because "his activities here disturb
public order".
