    The opposition Armenian National Congress (ANC) continues its rally
    outside Matenadaran.

    The relatives of the people killed during the March 1, 2008
    post-electoral turmoil have joined the protesters.

    Some of them have delivered speeches.

    "Not only the police but also the army was forced to battle with the
    peaceful protesters on March 1, 2008," said one of the protesters,
    Alla Hovhannisyan.

    "It's three years now that the parents of those killed are sparing no
    effort to have the circumstances of their children's murder disclosed.

    Having exhausted all the domestic resources, we are now turning to
    the European Court of Human Rights," she said, adding that a special
    NGO has been set up provide assistance to the families of the deceased.

    Addressing the crowd, head of the Armenian Pan-national Movement's
    political board, Aram Manukyan, called for supporting the relatives
    of the victims.

    "We'll struggle until the end. We won't sigh with relief unless we
    shut this page down," he said, stressing the importance of holding
    all the organizers, perpetrators and perjurors of March 1, 2008
    disorders accountable.
