Police were near the hooligans
Support A1+!The January 10 majoritarian deputy elections held at the #10 precinct was theft of the mandate under the veil of elections," says member of Central Electoral Commission Zoya Tadevosyan.
She told about all the falsifications that she personally witnessed at 10/19 and 10/15 polling stations. According to her, deputy candidate Ara Simonyan's supporters came up with new methods of falsification.
"We noticed how they took the voters' lists, but we weren't able to remember how 200 ballots were placed in the ballot box when 10-15 observers, proxies and journalists were standing nearby. Besides that, I think that the fact that the president of the commission reserves himself the right to close the doors of the polling station for an hour and half says it all. I think that he should be brought to justice," said Zoya Tadevosyan.
According to her, they are not able to fight against the phenomenon because there are many administrative resources and the law-enforcement bodies are standing next to the people committing the acts.
"If the police are with the hooligans, you can't do anything. All observations are followed by attacks and assaults with the help of policemen. In addition, there are eight members in the local electoral commissions of which seven go against one and if there is any illegal act, that is put up for a vote and illegalities turn into legality," said Zoya Tadevosyan.
