Recall, national police and military forces, called in to disperse protests following the presidential election, used \u201cexcessive force and violence\u201d which left 10 people dead and many more wounded.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In four years, how can you present clearly solvable murders as cases not subject to being solved? And at the same time, with this report, they viewed those killed as criminals and not as victims. While the murderers continue to be found in the respective structures and do not bear any punishment. In fact, this is what the report was about,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Weighing in on the the investigation \u2014 now the second \u2014 into the circumstances surrounding the events of Mar. 1\u20132, Kocharyan said simply time was bought so that &#8220;on the brink of the new year, they give our people a &#8216;surprise&#8217;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And they didn&#8217;t choose the timing by accident, so that it won&#8217;t be possible for any reaction to be followed up on. This is aimed at European structures, so that they [can] say, this is it, demand nothing more from us, be satisfied with this. I think that no one will be satisfied with this; this won&#8217;t please anyone; and our public, just as it consistently fought for obliging that the circumstances surrounding Mar. 1 be disclosed, will continue to fight until these crimes, these murders are solved,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The entire law enforcement system in Armenia was annihilated by the report on the events of Mar. 1\u20132, 2008, published by&#8230;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":151255,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tstyn_error":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[25317,65942,12179,36304,19620],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/epress.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/151527"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/epress.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/epress.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/epress.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/epress.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=151527"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/epress.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/151527\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/epress.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/151255"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/epress.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=151527"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/epress.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=151527"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/epress.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=151527"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
