Artur Baghdasarian: Authorities in Fear
Mediamax reports that Orinats Yerkir leader and presidential candidate Artur Baghdasarian has commented on last week’s ransacking of a party office in Armenia’s third largest city of Vanadzor.
The media outlet’s special election coverage site also says Baghdasarian is planning a pre-election campaign rally in central Yerevan next weekend.
Condemning the incident, the candidate for the position of the President expressed hope that the law-enforcement bodies will manage to unveil the crime and punish the “craven rascals”.
Artur Baghdasarian stated that the attack on the Vanadzor headquarter evidences “the fear of the authorities for the increase of his rating and the upcoming victory during the presidential elections of February 19”.
The candidate informed that the “national rally” of his allies will take place on February 3 in Yerevan at the Freedom Square.
