YEREVAN, OCTOBER 23, NOYAN TAPAN. If the Special Investigation Service
is not able to give answers to questions on the March 1 events, the NA
Ad-hoc Committee on Events Occurred on 1-2 March all the more is not
able to answer them as it does not have either intellectual ability
or proper powers. Rafik Petrosian, a member of the NA RPA faction,
stated at the October 23 press conference.
According to him, a fact-finding group need to be created as quickly
as possible for that purpose, which will function by the principle of
parity, equal presence of opposition and power representatives and
one representative of the RA Ombudsman. According to R. Petrosian,
only that parity principle will help the group to have an unbiassed
approach in the work. He expressed the hope that the fact-finding
group can work more efficiently than the Committee.
At the same time R. Petrosian said that members representing coalition
forces in the Ad-hoc Committee act by the dictate of their parties,
and the right of decisive vote belongs just to them, as the opposition
has refused to take part in Committee's work.
By the way, the journalists reminded R. Petrosian that it is the
parliament that decided to give the right of decisive vote to the
coalition, and the opposition refused to take part in Committee's
work just due to being deprived of the vote.
