On December 10, Armenia's Human Rights Defender summed up the year
presenting the state bodies which committed more human rights breaches
in 2012.
He underlined that the issues recorded in the human rights protection
sphere will be presented more in detail on March 31, 2013 when the
annual report of the Ombudsman is introduced.
This year, 5600 people protected their rights with the help of the
Ombudsman's office. Some of these people were provided law services.
Studying the requests of these people, 820 turned out grounded and
dealt with the following state bodies: Police (162 complaints),
Ministry of Labor and Social Protection (97), Ministry of Justice
(91), Ministry of Defense (68) and Yerevan City Hall (52).
The Ombudsman's office made a number of Violation Decisions which
are made when a state body ignores the Ombudsman's decisions after
being informed about having violated a citizen's right and keeps
insisting not to accept the illegality. Such cases were also reported:
Prosecutor's office - 6, Ministry of Defense - 6, Ministry of Labor and
Social Protection - 4, Ministry of Justice - 3, Yerevan City Hall - 2,
Ministry of Education and Science - 1, Ministry of Foreign Affairs - 1,
State Revenue Committee - 1, State Property Management Department - 1.
