    ArmInfo. Nikol Pashninyan, Editor of Haykakan Zhamanak (Armenian Time)
    daily, who is currently in custody under the case on mass disorders of
    March 1 2008, has been registered as a candidate for Armenian MP by
    the election committee No10.

    Press-secretary of the Central Electoral Commission of Armenia Tatev
    Ohanyan told ArmInfo correspondent that Leader of the Marxist Party of
    Armenia David Hakobyan, Chairman of the Union of Political experts
    Hmayak Hovhannisyan, and member of National Unity Party Ara Simonyan
    are also registered as candidates for MPs.

    To recall, the Central Electoral Commission took a decision to hold
    by-election at the constituency No10 after Khachatur Sukiassyan, a
    supporter of the first president of Armenia Levon Ter-Petrossyan, had
    withdrawn from his deputy mandate. The by-election will be held on 10
    Jan 2010.
