Green territories do not suppose beating: Naira Zohrabyan
PAP MP, head of human rights standing committee Naira Zohrabyan came to Opera and Ballet Theatre territory after receiving a call about violence against people, the MP told Aysor.am.
She came to the territory with another PAP MP Arman Abovian to hear the protesting employees.
“Unfortunately, a fourth woman has already showed me the injuries and torn clothes. When we ask what happened, they say they addressed bad words to police officers. But even if so, there are clear legal procedures none of which envisages beating women and hitting them. No violence should be displayed,” Zohrabyan said.
She stressed that they are not against greening works but other ways are necessary to be found for reaching this aim.
“Green territory does not mean beating people. Citizens have been working here for years. Who will compensate them?” she said, adding that the municipality must have a dialogue with the owners of cafes.
