PanARMENIAN.Net - Political expert Levon Shirinyan commented on
stripping ex-Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian of deputy immunity over
fund misuse case, urging to improve the justice system in Armenia.
"Armenian officials would be well advised to fix the prisons and
properly execute justice - practice proves even they are not immune
from jail," the expert said ironically.
The expert further characterized interactions between the ruling
Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) and Oskanian's Prosperous Armenia
as "the war of nerves." Also, Shirinyan did not rule out that a
high-ranking RPA official may soon be taken to court "to retain
symmetry."
On October 2, Armenian National Assembly resolved to strip Prosperous
Armenia member, former Foreign Minister Oskanian of deputy immunity
with 64 votes for, 6 against and 1 invalid, following two-day
discussions over Civilitas Foundation fund misuse charges.
