Heritage Party today marched from Heritage office to the Statue of Miasnikyan to commemorate the vicitms of March 1.

They silently passed through Mashtots Avenue and Lusavorich Street and headed to the Statue with a wreath and flowers. No policeman was escorting the procession.
Commenting on police actions, Heritage MP Zaruhi Postanjyan said the police were "concentrated" in the streets of Baghramyan, Demirchyan and near Matenadaran.
A bus full of red berets was parked near the Heritage office.

"Within the last 2 years RA government has undertaken artificial steps to grandstand in front of the international community. The authorities pretend to be attempting to overcome the political crisis which, as a matter of fact, is not only political but also disruptive for Armenians," Chairman of Heritage faction Stepan Safaryan said commenting on the investigation into the March 1 events.

The marchers honoured the memory of victims with a minute of silence and laid flowers at the memorial.
