Zhoghovurd: Law enforcement authorities 'hesitant' about opposition parties' crime report

The crime report which three opposition parties recently submitted to the Prosecutor General's Office, accusing the current government of "particularly grave crimes" (in connection with the constitutional reforms) is said to have stirred up trouble among the law enforcement agencies.

Speaking to the paper on Wednesday, an advisor to the prosecutor general, Gor Abrahamyan, said the appeal filed jointly by the Homeland party, Prosperous Armenia and the Armenian Revolutionary Federation-Dashnaksutyun (ARF-D) "is now under consideration".

But the paper claims that the parties' move provoked "heated debates" among many specialists who are now said to be hesitant about their future actions. Though Abrahamyan refrained from giving details, the situation is thought to be close to a solution. "Informed sources" have told Zhoghovurd that the future fate of the appeal will be in all likelihood clarified on Thursday.

A possible option under discussion at present deals with sending the complaint to an inquest authority with the possible prospect of receiving its rejection, says the paper, describing the kind of scenario as a "rather interesting situation".
