    OPPOSITION ACTIVISTS SETTING UP TENTS ON LIBERTY SQUARE

    Tert.am

    Opposition alliance Armenian National Congress (HAK) has started to
    set up tents on Liberty Square as part of its one-week all-day-round
    rallies it announced during its rally late on Friday.

    The HAK activists started to help setting up the tents after a call
    for help by HAK coordinator Levon Zurabyan.

    Nikol Pashinyan, the Chief Editor of the Armenian daily Haykakan
    Zhamanak, said that their actions are fully in line with Armenia~Rs
    legislation.

    Pashinyan, who was released from prison this summer for organizing
    unrest during the 2008 post-election events, also said that the
    opposition is going to strictly follow all the norms of discipline
    during the one-week rallies.

    Following the 2008 presidential elections the HAK activists set up
    tents in the same area and spent more than a week before being cracked
    down by riot police. At least ten people were killed then and dozen
    were wounded.
