UNITED ARMENIANS: "VOTERS WERE BRIBED BEFORE ELECTION DAY"
- The United Armenians Party says voters were bribed before election day and advises law-enforcement bodies to work in that direction.
"The coalition parties - Prosperous Armenia Party (BHK), Republican Party of Armenia (HHK) and Rule of Law (OEK) gave out election bribe but unfortunately we have no evidence," said Ruben Avagyan, Leader of the United Armenians Party.
He says polling station N29/40 stationed in the village of Lernantsk, Lori marz, was open after 8 p.m. and about 50 people were still casting votes there. By law, all polls close at 8 p.m.
Proxies of the Communist Party of Armenia (HKK) recorded two violations during yesterday's vote. The first one was the connected with the 'mysterious' disappearance of ink stamp while the other was a case of open voting in Lernasar village in Aragatsotni province.
"We have already reported the Central Election Commission about the two cases," HKK First Secretary Ruben Tovmasyan told A1+.
