Armenian National Congress (HAK) Coordinator Levon Zurabyan, while
speaking with journalists today, turned his attention to the upcoming
court proceedings in Armenia's Constitutional Court to consider the
No. 10 electoral district elections as being invalid.
"The Constitutional Court has approved an unlawful and outrageous
decision, with which it has violated the law by designating March 5 as
the day to review the claim. The timeline in which the Constitutional
Court has the right to review those claims is clearly written in
the law. The only possibility of delay permitted by law is states
that the Court might be burdened with those claims which, likewise,
relate to the results of majority elections.
"All of you very well know that no other claim has been presented to
the Constitutional Court. In the context of those claims, the Court
can be burdened only with the No. 10 electoral district demand,
[which is] our claim. That is, the Constitutional Court has itself
violated the law," said Zurabyan.
The HAK coordinator noted that "unfortunately, in our country, it's
not possible to challenge that [the Constitutional Court's decision],
because there's no such office to whom it would be possible to appeal
the unlawful act which the Constitutional Court has committed.
"But at least there's one thing we can say: the Constitutional Court
shows that it's simply one of the components of this thieving state
regime, their puppet, the one who does their bidding," added Zurabyan.
