JUSTICE MINISTRY DENIES RUMORS ABOUT RELEASE OF CRIMINALS

YEREVAN, MARCH 26, ARMENPRESS: Armenian justice minister has
flatly denied today a report by a pro-opposition daily, claiming that
“criminals sentenced for committing grave crimes were released from
prisons to stir up provocations during mass protest rallies to be
staged by the opposition in early April.”
A local pro-opposition daily, Haykakan Zhamanak, quoted today a
senior member of an opposition National Unity party, as claiming that
the released criminals were promised in return full discharge and
hefty money rewards.
A spokesman for justice ministry, Ara Saghatelian, said no
criminals were released and will not be released, except cases set by
legislation.
