ARMENIAN ETHICS COMMITTEE REJECTS TRANSPARENCY INTERNATIONAL’S APPEAL
June 13, 2013 – 21:56 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net – Armenia’s ethics committee rejected Transparency
International Anti-Corruption Center’s appeal regarding the violation
of ethical norms by MP Samvel Aleksanyan.
According to the committee’s decision, the appeal lacks documents
proving the violations committed.
On May 24, the center addressed the committee with a request to
consider the compliance of MP Aleksanyan’s conduct during Yerevan city
council elections with parliamentary ethical norms, with a relevant
internet video material cited as a proof.
“The committee considered the video material unlinked to the demands
listed in the appeal. However, according to the video, the MP’s visit
to the polling station served the purpose of monitoring the election
process,” the center’s report reads.
