"People cannot be enrolled on the eve of an election no matter they
are Armenians or foreigners," says the leader of People's Party,
Tigran Karapetyan who stands for Yerevan's Mayor.
"If 16 years later the CEC finds that a foreigner can be registered
15 days or a year ahead of the election to self-government bodies, it
is a falsification and helps rig the elections," says Mr. Karapetyan.
Tigran Karapetyan today appealed a decision of the Central Election
Commission (CEC) at the Administrative Court.
The Administrative Court found Tigran Karapetyan's action ungrounded
and dismissed it.
"I expected the court to make a decision of dismissal as Armenia
lacks a fair court. I call this court a fair museum rather than a fair
court. They lag behind life and cannot keep pace with the times. Other
countries have reached the peak while we are still conducting medieval
elections and supporting one and the same force," says the leader of
People's Party.
