Postanjyan: It is impossible to solve the case on March 1 without involving Levon Ter-Petrosyan in the process

ArmInfo.It is impossible to open the case on March 1, 2008 without the involvement of the first President Levon Ter-Petrosyan, who was at the time leading the  opposition movement. Zaruhi Postanjyan, leader of the Yerkir Tsirani  Party, said this at a press conference.

According to her, there was an originally planned scenario, according  to which there should have been victims during the opposition  rallies. said Postanjyan.Already on March 1,  as Postanjyan assured, she, together with several political figures,  visited the headquarters of Ter-Petrosian, informing him that the  people gathered at the Myasnikyan monument require a meeting with  him: 

 Ter-Petrosyan refused to go, he said that it was not his people, he  did not gather them, it was a spontaneous rally, and he had nothing  to go there>.According to Postianjian, it was originally planned that  the first victim should have been a policeman. , she said.Postianjian also found it strange  that during the clashes Ter-Petrosian’s team did not arrive at the  scene.   said Postanjyan.

It should be noted that as a result of clashes at opposition rallies  that followed the 2008 presidential elections in Armenia, at which  Serj Sargsyan won de jure, 10 people were killed on March 1. The  investigation of the case is still ongoing. Within the framework of  the case, the second President of Armenia, Robert Kocharyan, and a  number of high-ranking officials of that time are being charged with  overthrowing the constitutional system.Recall that the current Prime  Minister Nikol Pashinyan was an active supporter of Levon  Ter-Petrosyan. After the events of March 1, 2008, Pashinyan was  convicted on charges of organizing mass riots for 7 years, and, after  serving 2 years, was released.
