Tigran Khzmalyan, film director, oppositionist, public worker, says
Moscow and Russian KGB (State Security Committee) are behind the
"terror against the Founding Parliament Movement."
Talking to ArmInfo, Khzmalyan said: "Perhaps, it is the only difference
between the actions of the Young Armenian Government of our country
and their Young Turkish teachers. I am reluctant to say that we
are witnesses and victims of a second genocidal actions against the
Armenian nation ahead of the Armenian Genocide Centennial," he said.
Khzmalyan recalled that one hundred years ago Turks launched the
genocide of Armenians on April 24 with arrests of the Armenian
intellectuals of Constantinople and now, the Armenian authorities
are repeating the lessons of their teachers.
He said the activists of the Founding Parliament are facing arrests
not only in Yerevan, but also in Vanadzor. He anticipates reports on
expulsion of the Movement's members from Diaspora and from Armenia.
"In other words, we are witnessing an open terror in response to
the efforts to fight corruption and feudal regime in Armenia by
constitutional methods," the oppositionist said. Artsakh War Hero,
coordinator of the Founding Parliament (FP) Zhirayr Sefilyan, members
of the FP, Varuzhan Avetisyan, Pavel Manukyan and Sefilyan's brother
Toros Sefilyan were detained today, on April 7.
Earlier, the Police searched the houses of Zhirayr Sefilyan, Varuzhan
Avetisyan, and Karo Yeghnukyan. The Investigation Committee of Armenia
has disseminated a report saying that "the National Security Service
and the Investigation Committee of Armenia have prevented an attempt
of organized mass disorders that were planned for April 24 2015."
