Ballots cast for the HHK were torn and hidden
The votes of precinct 8/05 of Yerevan's Malatia-Sebastia district were recounted at the General Prosecutor's Office today.
The sack of ballot papers was found open.
Representatives of the National Academy of Science and Central Election Commission opened the parcel of unused and cancelled ballots and found 77 valid ballots and another 98 marked and torn ballots in favour of the HHK.
These ballots were undoubtedly meant for vote stuffing and were later torn off and put in the parcel of unused and cancelled ballots.
Then the presentees started to open the other sacks. All of them were unsealed with one signature while the law demands three signatures and one seal on each sack.
There was neither a seal nor a signature on the sack of voters' list.
The sack of HHK's ballots was open. Seven invalid ballots and 15 copies were found inside valid ones.
Experts announced that the ballots need to be sent to an additional study.
The other 454 ballots cast in favour of the Republican Party were valid.
210 people voted for the BHK. Two ballots were found invalid. Out of 80 votes cast for the OYK only one was invalid.
HAK had 147 votes, ZhK- 14, HASK-7 and ARF - 63. All of them were valid.
Heritage MP Anahit Bakhshyan participated at today's recount. "We have just witnessed elementary ignorance," Anahit Bakhshyan told A1+.
Note that two people were arrested at this polling station on May 31.
