GASPARI VS ALEXANYAN: ETHICS COMMITTEE RULES IN FAVOUR OF GASPARI
07:17 pm | Today | Social
Samvel Aleksanyan, a member of the Republican Party faction, has
violated ethics rules. The decision was announced by the Ethics
Committee of Armenia’s National Assembly after it completed hearing
of the claim filed by civic activist Vardges Gaspari against Alexanyan.
Gaspari lodged the complaint against the lawmaker following a June
21 incident near the National Assembly during which Alexanyan and his
men approached Gaspari outside the parliament building where Gaspari
was protesting against the Harsnakar scuffle, seized the poster he
was carrying and knocked him to the ground.
Five of the six members of the Ethics Committee voted for the decision.
The Committee is chaired by Nikol Pashinyan, an MP of the opposition
Armenian National Congress (HAK) Merujan Simonyan (Prosperous Armenia
Party-BHK), Hovhannes Margaryan (Country of Law -OEK), Artsvik Minasyan
(ARF-Dashnaktsutyun), Zaruhi Postanjyan (HHK) and David Harutyunyan
(Republican Party of Armenia – HHK) are also included in the Committee.
