PROSPEROUS ARMENIAN PARTY (PAP) TO ORGANIZE ACTION OF PROTEST OVER ABDUCTION OF PAP MEMBER ON FEBRUARY 9

As unknown men in masks abduct Artak Khachatryan, a member of the
Prosperous Armenian Party (PAP) on February 7, PAP mulls an action of
protest. Vahe Enfiajyan, a parliamentarian (PAP), calls on everyone
who fights for free and democratic public to join the protests that
will be held outside the Government building at 1:00pm on February 9.
Artak Khachatryan, a member of the PAP Political Council, was abducted
by the three unknown in masks on February 7 in the evening. Several
hours later, he was found near his apartment severely beaten up.
PAP has disseminated a statement over the incident, wherein it
strongly condemned the violence against Khachatryan. The Party
blames the political leadership of Armenia for the incident that
happened shortly after Khachatryan took an active part in the protests
against the Law on Turnover Tax. The Party slams the authorities for
restoring to violence against their own citizens instead of settling
the social-economic problems accumulated in the country and recovering
the political atmosphere. The authorities are losing touch with reality
and acting in agony, the PAP says in the statement. The PAP informs
that it has received numerous offers from the regional headquarters
and territorial offices to organize a large-scale rally in Yerevan.
However, the PAP Political Council so far calls for restraint and
suggests its parliamentary faction to boycott the parliament sittings
until those who attacked and beaten up the activist are found and
punished.
