ZHOGHOVURD: 20 CONS 'CONVERTED' INTO 'PROS'
09:47 03.10.13
Following the secret ballot on the candidacy for the post of Armenia's
prosecutor general in Armenia's parliament, the counting board managed
to "convert" about 20 "cons" into "pros."
According to the newspaper, Armenian National Assembly Speaker Hovik
Abrahamyan "stepped in" as well. Secretary of the counting board
Lyudmila Sargsyan, an Armenian National Congress (ANC) parliamentary
group member, told the newspaper: "In fact, I was the only committee
member representing the parliamentary group that objected to Gevorg
Kostanyan's candidacy. And I do not rule out that the six commission
members could somehow hide the 'cons' and later slip them into the
'pros'."
The newspaper's "well-informed sources" report that Mr Abrahamyan
was concerned over the results and was involved and did his utmost
to ensure Mr Kostanyan's decisive victory. However, Head of the PR
Department, Parliament of Armenia, Gohar Poghosyan told the newspaper
that Mr Abrahamyan did not take part in the vote count.
