12:39 - 16.05.13
The office of the Human Rights Defender (Ombudsman) of Armenia issued
a statement urging Armenia's Minister of Defense Seyran Ohanyan to
present an annual report on the death rate in Armenia's Armed forces
to the National Assembly.
One conscript died, another one was rushed to military hospital after
conscript Davit Khachatryan opened fire at them at about 3.30 pm, on
May 15, in a military unit in Noyemberyan.
The Ombudsman's office expects Armenia's Military Prosecutor's Office
to guarantee an impartial and comprehensive investigation and the
judicial system to create all the necessary conditions for the
Prosecution and Defense.
The Ombudsman's office proposes that Armenia's minister of defense
present an annual report on the human rights situation in the Armed
Force, particularly the death rate and causes of deaths, harassment of
servicemen, availability of medical services, as well as on efforts to
improve the situation.
The Ombudsman's office has applied to Armenia's minister of defense
for explanations. Representatives of the Ombudsman's office plan to
visit the injured serviceman in hospital.
