MP gave a slap
Today "Prosperous Armenia" MP Naira Zohrabyan slapped president of the Shengavit 11/04 Precinct Election Commission and experienced commission president Hasmik Ghazaryan.
Naira Zohrabyan received an alarm regarding electoral violations and went to the polling station.
"I went to the precinct, approached the president of the commission and told her that she should be in charge of the procedure. I saw how she was coming and going and bringing people in. I told her that I had suspicions, that I had heard about her and that I was going to follow up on the vote at this polling station," said Zohrabyan.
According to the MP, Ghazaryan started screaming, after which Zohrabyan said:
"I told her very harshly that the commission will play with the fate of citizens by committing violations. She started screaming and told me to mind my own business. She attacked me, saying that nobody had the right to tell her what to do and I simply slapped her."
After that, according to Naira Zohrabyan, the president of commission started yelling and was preparing to attack, but did not get the chance.
"She was trying to attack me every chance she got. As I was leaving, she came out of the precinct and was running towards me, while fellow commission members held her back," said Naira Zohrabyan.
The MP added that she did not wish to make this incident public at all, but was forced to give clarifications because the head of the commission had started talking about it.
