CANDIDATE: "I'M NOT HOVIK ABRAHAMYAN'S NIECE"
- Deputy candidate from precinct N 17, Karine Poghosyan has sent a letter to leader of the People's Party Tigran Karapetyan, who is also running in the same precinct.
Poghosyan's letter comes after Tigran Karapetyan said "Karine Poghosyan was Hovik Abrahamyan's niece and the director of the school in Mkhchyan village".
"In response to your statement, I ascertain that I am neither Hovik Abrahamyan's niece nor director of the school in Mkhchyan village, but I am the director of secondary school N 1 in Artashat city, which is one of the best schools in Ararat province. I think you, as an "experienced" deputy candidate, don't have the right to give such inaccurate information.
You won't achieve success with that working style," said Karine Poghosyan.
Karine Poghosyan has been nominated by the Republican Party of Armenia (HHK).
