The chairman of the Armenian Parliament, Galust Saakyan, has allegedly
applied to the Central Electoral Commission, asking the CEC to strip
lawmaker Gagik Tsarukyan of his seat.
"This is an unexpected development, because everybody expected the
issue to be put to a vote at the plenary session of the National
Assembly - something stipulated by Article 99 of the NA Regulations,"
armtimes.com cited its source.
The Haykakan Zhamanak daily has a document showing that Gagik
Tsarukyan's absences from the previous fall session were considered
to be excused absences. It turns out that Galust Saakyan will have
to annul his own decision to consider Tsarukyan's absences from NA
sessions as excusable.
