violations of human rights of the residents being expelled from their
houses over the construction project of Yerevan. Today the Ombudsman
met with journalists to tell that the report will be placed at the
website
Without mentioning any names or state structures infringing the rights
the residents L. Alaversyan diplomatically noted, “The violations can
be observed n the government resolution, the programs worked out by
the city administration and in the course of performing pleas.” The
forcible expelling and the amount of compensation aroused indignation
of the Ombudsman.

in not called to condemn the incumbent or the construction works
carried out in the capital. After attending Buzand Steet 23 and seeing
