ArmInfo. The authorities have proved once again that they are
criminals by organizing criminalized elections. What was taking place
in Malatia-Sebastia community was not an election but real anarchy,
the coordinator of the Armenian National Congress (ANC) Levon Zurabyan
said while summing up the results of today's elections into the
Council of Elders of Yerevan.
Voters were bribed on a mass scale. "They brought lots of people from
the country and forced them to vote instead of Yerevan residents. Lots
of people, mostly, proxies of ANC and Heritage party, were beaten in
Malatia-Sebastia community. Anushavan Nikogossyan, proxy of Heritage
party, was even kidnapped," Zurabyan said. He is sure that the violence
will be continued during the count.
Spokesman of ANC Arman Musinyan said that lots of soldiers were
involved in the voting, particularly, servicemen from Nagorno-
Karabakh. "It was a well-organized action. 99% of the violations were
aimed against ANC," Musinyan said. "We had lawyers at all polling
stations and they are presently drafting complaints. For the moment, we
don't know if the violations organized by the regime will be enough for
it to steal our victory. But we believe that we will win," Musinyan
said.
