A handful of citizen activists gathered outside the RA Administrative
Court in Yerevan today to protest recent gas and electricity rate
hikes.
For the second time, the court has refused to accept a citizens'
filed suit seeking to roll back the increases.
The protestors say this latest setback will not deter them from
continuing their struggle against what they see as illegal and
unjustified utility rate hikes.
Former presidential candidate Andreas Ghoukasyan (photo 7), who
participated in the protest, said they would exhaust all judicial
avenues so that, in the future, the protestors couldn't be blamed
for not seeking a legal resolution of the matter.
