YEREVAN. - Armenian MP Zaruhi Postanjyan said law enforcers must

During the Thursday media conference, Postanjyan called on law
enforcers to remove the media articles containing threats against her.
The MP said she had addressed parliament speaker Hovik Abrahamyan with
a request to ensure her safety in the parliament, since four MPs from
the ruling Republican Party of Armenia had voiced threats against her.
Mrs. Postanjyan is always accompanied by two policemen.
Her requesst came in response to an interview of Deputy Sport Minister
Khachik Asryan with yerkir.am website. Commenting on Postanjyan's
harsh question to the president, Asryan said Postanjyan should be
burnt alive.
During the question and answer session at the PACE plenary session
in Strasbourg, France, on October 2, Zaruhi Postanjyan had asked
Armenia's President Serzh Sargsyan the following question:
"You have appeared here [in the PACE session] not by the will of
the people, but [rather] as a consequence of organized crime, the
theft of the Armenian people's vote. Therefore you cannot de jure
represent the will and right of the Armenian people. [So,] I'll give
you another question. Have you been to a casino in Europe and lost
70 million euros there? And who paid that amount in your stead?"
