"The Social Democratic Hnchakyan Party" has disseminated an
announcement on the eve of 19 July presidential elections in
Nagorno-Karabakh. The party is very much concerned about the processes
around the presidential elections in Karabakh.

"Recently, information is circulating in the media that one of the
presidential candidates in the NKR, namely Bako Sahakyan, is drug
addicted. This information was disseminated by a political analyst
Igor Muradyan, whose opinion should be taken into consideration
and appropriate conclusions should be made on them. In case Bako
Sahakyan is elected, the Azerbaijani authorities will use this in
various international institutes and Karabakh will be observed as
a transit passageway for narcotics. According to our sources, Bako
Sahakyan does not have even a 10-year registration in Karabakh",
says the announcement.

"The Social Democratic Hnchakyan Party" appeals to Bako Sahakyan and
offers him to withdraw his candidacy for the sake of Nagorno-Karabakh.
