12:42 ¢ 07.11.09
The Police of the Republic of Armenia Passports and Visas Department,
when asked by Nikol Pashinyan's plenipotentiary representative David
Matevosyan, declined to comment on a certificate related to
Pashinyan's permanent residence status in Armenia in the last 5 years,
reports daily paper Haykakan Zhamanak (`Armenian Times').
As reported by the daily, it is noted in the certificate that `The
Police of the Republic of Armenia Criminal Investigations Main
Department, in accordance with [date] 03-11-2009, number 3/3-3671,
[states that] N. Pashinyan, between 26-02-2008 and 07-07-2009 has been
wanted and during that time [when the police were searching for him],
he has not lived in the Republic of Armenia.'
It is because of this, it seems, that the police refused to comment on
the certificate. Haykakan Zhamanak notes that the Armenian police,
with this letter, has permitted a few falsifications to emerge.
`The sole fact of being wanted can never mean that the person in
question has not resided in Armenia during that time,' reports
Haykakan Zhamanak.
Apart from that, the authors of the article write, if corresponding
state bodies state that Nikol Pashinyan was not in Armenia from
February 26, 2008, then how can they charge him with organizing mass
disorder on March 1, 2008? From the letter it seems, as well, that
Pashinyan wasn't in Armenia till July 7 this year.
`It's interesting, then, who was the Nikol Pashinyan who presented
himself to RA General Prosecutor's office on July 1, 2009?' asks
Haykakan Zhamanak.
