Committee chief violates law, goes unpunished - opposition candidate's proxy
May 6, 2012 - 15:59 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Head of the electoral committee of 7/02 polling
station in Yerevan's Malatia-Sebastia administrative district Artashes
Grigoryan violated the regulations, representative of the opposition
Armenian National Congress (ANC) Nikol Pashinyan's proxy Sipan
Pashinyan said.
`The committee head entered the polling booths where the voters stood,
arguing he wants to switch on the light. I objected to this saying he
cannot come in, but he gave no response,' he told a PanARMENIAN.Net
reporter.
According to Sipan Pashinyan, he registered this violation, but
members of the committee and other proxies refused to sign the
protocol saying they did not see this, though the incident occurred
before their eyes.
Besides, the opposition proxy said, he registered the vanishing ink
marks in voters' passports, but again those present said they saw
nothing of the kind.
When ANC proxy suggested that Grigoryan should sign the paper, he
first talked over the phone, then started yelling claiming he has no
right to sign such documents.
A PanARMENIAN.Net reporter tried to clarify the details with
Grigoryan, who claimed that `Pashinyan's witness is lying, and this is
provocation.'
