Yesterday morning unknown persons fired not far from the house of the
leader of the regional structure of the party, a parliament member
from the "Prosperous Armenia" Party, Rustam Gasparyan, in Janfida
village of Armavir region of Armenia.
According to Gasparyan's neighbours, they noticed two cars near his
house but nobody called police. The village residents suppose that
supporters of a member of the ruling Republican Party of Armenia,
Nahapet Gevorkyan, which has rather tense relations with Gasparyan,
initiated the shooting. To note, at present Gasparyan is outside
Armenia.
To recall, the leader of the Jermuk territorial structure of
Prosperous Armenia Party, Armen Hovannisyan, was arrested on 29
November on suspicion for possession of drugs. The leader of one of
the departments of "Araratcement" plant, Armen Muradyan, was arrested
with the similar accusation on 25 November. The plant belongs to the
leader of the Prosperous Armenia Party Gagik Tsarukyan.
When commenting on these incidents, Tsarukyan's press-secretary Khachik
Galstyan said that the pressing upon the party is becoming more and
more obvious. He also added that representatives of the party have
been watching the situation and will give their assessment later.
