PanARMENIAN.Net – A probe into criminal cases on human rights revealed
violations by Prosecutor General’s Office in six of them.
According to the press service of Armenian Ombudsman’s Office,
violations of RA Criminal Procedure Code were recorded in all of
the six cases, with the law calling for urgent discussion of the
crimes reported.
The Ombudsman’s Office staff has repeatedly filed notes to the
prosecutor, proposing to eliminate the violations.
“The Prosecutor’s Office, as well as other state institutions must
act in line with the legislation. The given violation of the law is
inadmissible in terms of the rule of law. Practice of law in such
a manner distorts the legislator’s will, extremely broadening the
scope of prosecutorial discretion and creating favorable conditions
for corruption risks,” the note by RA Ombudsman’s Office staff reads.
