Statement
Today «Inheritance» party leader Raffi Hovhannisyan’s electoral headquarters spread a statement in which it was particularly said that after Raffi Hovhannisyan had visited the provinces of the Republic of Armenia an urgent meeting, which was impossible to conduct with a notice, is to be conducted in Yerevan today in order to promptly react to the situation which has emerged in the Republic of Armenia. The police of the Republic of Armenia is empowered to state in connection with this that the organizers of today's «urgent» meeting informed about it even a few days ago, consequently, the necessity to promptly react to the events is definitely disproved. It is also obvious that Raffi Hovhannisyan’s visits to the provinces of the Republic of Armenia haven’t resulted in a new situation, which needs to be promptly reacted to, because the topic of discussion, like in case of a number of pre-election and post-election meetings conducted by Raffi Hovhannisyan, was and remains the candidate's own assessment of the results of the presidential elections and ensuing actions.
The police of the Republic of Armenia consider it necessary to notice that the right to conduct spontaneous and urgent meetings vested in the article 26 of the law “On freedom of meetings” refers to exceptional situations, certain cases, and such meetings are likely to have a real urgent motive otherwise under the veil of an urgent or spontaneous meeting any meeting demanding a preliminary notice can be conducted thus defeating the very purpose of the law, as well as the one of the notice, which is as follows: to provide the natural and peaceful course of the meeting and as well as to undertake measures aimed at defending others' rights, public interests, which becomes impossible or essentially more difficult unless a notice has been made. And this endangers the possibility of efficiently defending the rights of the participants of the meeting and those of others.
The police of the Republic of Armenia emphasize that different provisions of an act are complete. One cannot, in terms of his/her interests, cite a part of them in one case, and another part, in another case. Consequently, today's meeting is also illegal and can lead to an administrative liability.
