POLICE DISARM GAGIK TSARUKYAN'S SECURITY GUARDS
Monday, February 16, 23:22
The police have started disarming Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP)
leader Gagik Tsarukyan's security guards following the deterioration
of relations between Tsarukyan and Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan.
"Zhoghovurd" (People) newspaper says that the matter concerns 200
employees of the Police's state security division, who were carrying
arms in full compliance with the law and guarding Tsarukyan's business
facilities under a contract.
When commenting on the information, the Armenian Police press service
reports that the specified division of the Police allegedly undergoes
regular inspections aimed at enhancing the professional skills of
the staff and firing the unprofessional employees.
At the Feb 12 session of the Republican Party of Armenia Council,
Serzh Sargsyan strongly criticized Tsarukyan for his "pseudo-political"
activities and said that he is going to exclude Tsarukyan from the
National Security Council. Sargsyan also touched on Tsarukyan's
competence level and pointed out his failure to pay taxes.
Following Serzh Sargsyan's Feb 12 criticism against Tsarukyan,
the leader of PAP made a speech, saying that he "is persecuted"
because he refuses to help the President to retain power by means of
constitutional reforms. Tsarukyan pointed out that in his Feb 12 speech
Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan hinted at the taxes that Tsarukyan
failed to pay. "During his term in office, all the enterprises
belonging to me and to my relatives repeatedly underwent audit",
he said. "Meanwhile, the people perfectly know who is robbing the
budget at the state level and who is engaged in kick-backs", he added.
