The unsuccessful film and edited recording made by law enforcement officers is a well-known pattern – Marianna Ghahramanyan

The Strong Armenia party is the leading opposition force in Armenia, mobilizing a significant segment of society and enjoying broad support – something that, concerns the authorities and compels them to act, the party’s spokesperson Marianna Ghahramanyan stated.

“The only blatant and ongoing illegal action in the current electoral process is the shameful and clearly unlawful, nearly ten-month detention of our party leader Samvel Karapetyan.

Strong Armenia operates strictly within the framework of the Constitution and the law. The so-called ‘film’ and edited recording produced by law enforcement bodies – now acting as instruments of the authorities – follow a familiar pattern.

It is evident that this no longer attracts public interest, as it is widely understood that the current authorities persecute individuals even for a single statement, and the presumption of innocence has become a forgotten value,” she noted.

It should be recalled that the Anti-Corruption Committee announced today that cases involving alleged electoral bribery and violations of the ban on charity during the election period by the “Our Way” movement have been uncovered.
