If dead people vote, why can’t they get pensions – ARF-D MP on Vazgen
Khachikyan’s case

15:55 – 21.05.13

Armenian Revolutionary Federation Dashnaktsutyun faction MP Vahan
Hovanissian in response to the government’s arguments that they are
fighting against corruption and Vazgen Khachikyan’s arrest is the
brightest example of it said, `Khachikyan has not done anything wrong,
he tried to restore the justice – if dead people are voting, why they
can’t get pensions.’

Hovanissian’s remark was accepted with ovation by the opposition. The
MPs were applauding and laughing, among them were PAP MPs.

Hovanissian said in such conditions it is senseless to discuss
government’s program, speak about issues, voice the problems of
residents of hail-stricken territories. He said in reality the quality
of the authorities is being discussed.

`Republican party’s big ideologist Galust Grigorich [Galust Sahakyan]
says `there is no one better than we’. More probably the government
took it seriously. You are not the best, you just should prove that
you are not the worst,’ the ARF-D MP said
