After the meeting in the prosecutor's office where Serzh Sargsyan
reprimanded everyone of failure of their duties, cover-up of crimes
and fabrication of cases, nothing more can be said about the law
enforcement system. It remains to ask why in this case Serzh Sargsyan
did not ask Aghvan Hovsepyan to resign.
But Serzh Sargsyan has defined the essence very accurately. The
prosecutor's office and the police are not meant for enforcement of
law, disclosure and punishment of crimes but for the punishment of
dissidents, cover up of "their" people and making money.
In Armenia dissidents are all those who stand for the equality in
front of the law and don't recognize the power-thieve hierarchy. The
law enforcers may neutralize them instantly and make them become a
part of the system. This is done either through fabrication of cases
and bribes or deprivation of liberty and bankruptcy. At the same time,
the second function is fulfilled - making money.
The law enforcement system of Armenia has inherited these functions
from the Soviet Union where the courts and militia have fulfilled
exceptionally political punitive functions. People were divided into
"insiders" and "outsiders", like they are now. Their people are allowed
to do everything, while others periodically need to be involved in some
cases and punished. This is democracy and supremacy of the Soviet law.
Since the Soviet times, the institute of fabricating cases has
existed, which has developed during independence in Armenia. There is
a network of agents who fabricate cases, arrange perjury. These agents
are employees of prosecution and police. This institute rules out
justice which is composed of respect of rule of law and human rights.
As long as the law enforcement bodies order to "sew cases" against
"outsiders", as long as it does not punish strictly the investigators
who "sew cases" not for political reasons but in order to make money,
nothing will change in this system. Just like the traffic police
officers continue accepting bribes until they are given a plan from
the top.
Currently there are hundreds of template records in the police and
prosecutor's office that are specifically designed for serious crimes,
and the investigator asks for a few thousand dollars for changing
charges, not hiding the fact that the prosecutor and judges have their
share. In this situation, the lawyers are not supposed to prove the
innocence of their clients, but to find relevant channels through
which they can bribe and change the article.
Let Vova Gasparyan or Aghvan Hovsepyan not ask to point out specific
cases - there are a lot of such facts. Let them sort out with
Vardan Ghukasyan who was directly accused by Samvel Balasanyan of
embezzlement. If this is not cover-up of crimes, what is this then?
