TER-PETROSSIAN’S HEADQUARTERS CLOSED DOWN

Presidential contender Levon Ter-Petrossian’s pre-election office in Kapan was sealed on January 28. Two policemen are presently guarding the office to prevent its further operation.
“Over twenty policemen broke into the office and sent us off. We weren’t even allowed to take our belongings and documents. Then they sealed the office,” the head of the office Roman Navasardian told A1+.
The sudden intrusion is accounted for the fact that the employees had disobeyed the owner’s demand to vacate the premises. Although the tenants hadn’t made a contract they had paid for two months in advance.
According to the local police, “after getting the money the owner found out that she had made a mistake by allotting the premises to Levon Ter-Petrossian’s adherents. She asked the marzpet for help and, the latter assigned the corresponding bodies to tackle the problem.”
“The woman must have been subjected to pressure. She didn’t even wait for the court’s verdict due on January 30,” Roman Navasardian said.
“We shall work outdoors. Surely, they will never allot us premises. We have applied to the Kapan Mayor but so far we have got no response,” he said.
“Obviously the police exerted pressure on the owner. The latter was made to go back from the preliminary oral arrangement. The bargain was surely beneficial for her,” lawyer Arthur Sakunts said.
