    LEGISLATION FORBIDDING "PROSELYTISM" PRESENTED TO VENICE COMMITTEE

    Armen Ashotyan, the co-author of the legislation to make changes
    in the law on "Freedom of conscience and religious organizations",
    recommended today during the National Assembly session to postpone
    the voting of the legislation up to the next session.

    It is remarkable that the law defines the term "proselytism" (soul
    hunting) and stresses that it is forbidden in the territory of Armenia.

    Armen Ashotyan told to Panorama.am that they have received
    recommendations from the deputies, ordinary people and the religious
    organizations, and made a decision to ask the Chairman of the NA to
    present the legislation to the Venice Committee for making expertise
    before putting it on vote.
