NO ONE HAS A RIGHT TO DISGRACE CITIZEN OF ARMENIA, VICE SPEAKER SAYS
YEREVAN, July 16./ARKA/
No one has a right to disgrace an Armenian citizen, Armenian parliament
vice speaker Eduard Sharmazanov said Tuesday as he commented the
situation around the alleged culprit of the accident on a Moscow
highway, Novosti-Armenia reported.
The truck, loaded with 10 tons of crushed stones, toppled over while
entering a highway in southwestern Moscow on Saturday, careening into
the bus and practically tearing it in two killing 18 people.
Thirty-one of the 64 people on the bus remained hospitalized as of
Monday, 12 of them in serious condition. The truck driver, Hrachya
Harutyunyan, was arrested Monday.
Ombudsman of Armenia Karen Andreasyan addressed a letter to his
Russian counterpart Vladimir Lukin on Tuesday. Particularly, Andreasyan
requested Lukin to make clarifications around disrespectful attitude
shown to Harutyunyan as he appeared in the court room in a housecoat.
"If he (Harutyunyan) is found to be guilty, he should be punished
for sure, but no one has a right to disgrace Armenian citizen, as
any other citizen as well," Sharmazanov told reporters.
Appealing to the reporters not to exaggerate the matter, the vice
speaker noted he had already contacted his Russian colleague.
"Official Yerevan, Ministry of Foreign Affairs are dealing with this
issue," he added.-0-
