Ombudsman of Armenia Karen Andreasyan has disseminated a statement,
Friday, wherein he slams the Police and Municipality for their
unwillingness to stop perversions in the city Children's Park
"Komaygi."
Ombudsman Andreasyan alarms of prostitution and sexual perversions
in the park. "Prostitution and sexual intercourse in public areas are
administrative offences," he said. The Ombudsman claims that all the
applications to the Municipality for relevant measures proved useless,
as the Municipality lays the blame on the Police. "Meanwhile, the
Municipality has officially declared that it has received no alarms
on prostitution and sexual intercourse in public areas, in particular,
in the given Park," Andreasyan said. He is sure that the Police ought
to initiate a criminal case on the basis of numerous media reports
on frequent sexual perversions in the Children's Park.
"Police regularly detain prostitutes through the city, but never in
the Children's Park," the human rights defender says.
He offers hedging the Park and increasing the night-time lighting as
well as police guards.
"Our demands are based on the European experience and values. The
European Convention for Human Rights equally protects the human rights
and freedoms and public morals," he said. It is noteworthy that part
of the fesitivites timed to the 2795th Anniversary of Yerevan will
be held in the Children's Park 11-12 October. The Municipality has
organized large-scale festivities. These days the Municipality is
closed for reporters and citizens as it is "seriously" engaged in the
organization issues. Incidentally, on sidelines of the events timed
to the 2795th Anniversary of Yerevan, an international conference
of mayors has kicked off in Yerevan to study comfortable life of the
Yerevan citizens.
