Today the president of ‘Soldier’ Coordinating Council Margarita
Khachatryan, in a conversation with Aravot.am expressed her distrust
about the initiative of the Military Prosecutor’s Office. According to
the statement of military prosecutor’s office, a working group was set
up to examine criminal cases with death outcome in the Armed Forces.
As Margarita Khachatryan observed, “I do not think that the public’s
trust will increase from it. I do not particularly cherish the hope
that something will be revealed. I should be an independent body
to explore. I have my son’s experience, what sufferings I bear to
reach everything. I live today with suffering because the case is
not revealed.
I’m experiencing a lot of pain when I see protesting mothers of
victims’. I live in great sorrow. This initiative for them can
not be a hope.” Ms. Khachatryan has no idea whether she will be
involved in the working group, or not. She said that she had not
received an invitation yet, and it still needs to be discussed,
which are non-governmental organizations that can participate in these
activities. “We cooperate with the Ministry of Defense. Those who have
3 years of working experience in the army, will be invited. Today,
after the board meeting, it will become clear who are invluded.” As
Margarita Khachatryan said,- “I know them very well and I’m sorry that
nothing will be changed from that work.
None of our cases will be disclosed.” To our question that the working
group should consider only those criminal cases, the final decision
of which was made after 1 January, 2011, whether it is not suspicious,
Margarita Khachatryan said,- “Of course, there is a suspicion. If the
case of ’98 is not disclosed, why did they take the criminal cases
after 2011? According to the preliminary version, the military police,
according to preliminary version, the investigation of the scene of
the case, if initially are distorted, the criminal cases will proceed
distorted to the end.
