YEREVAN.- Former presidential candidate Andreas Ghukasyan was charged
with disobeying a lawful order of police under Article 182 of the
Administrative Code.
Ghukasyan spent three hours at police station, he told Armenian News
- NEWS.am.
The politician said he has no intention to pay the administrative fine,
as he considers accusation unfounded.
"Police order that the protesters must leave Bagramyan Avenue in
15 minutes, is not legal. I did not sign the report drawn up by the
police. In accordance with the third paragraph of the Constitution
of Armenia, being on Baghramyan Avenue, I did everything to avoid a
conflict between the demonstrators and the police," he said.
As reported earlier, Andreas Ghukasyan was brought to the police
station of Malatia-Sebastia on Tuesday evening during a demonstration
