BHK demands that police explain their behaviour
Armenians all over the world are commemorating on April 24 the victims of the Armenian Genocide, one of the tragic events in the Armenian history. Thousands of Armenian citizens, Diaspora Armenians, and foreign guests have been visiting the Armenian Genocide Memorial since early morning to pay respect to the Genocide victims.
After laying flowers at the monument, Leader of the Prosperous Armenia Party (BHK) Gagik Tsarukyan, was not allowed to get back to his car parked in the territory of the memorial on the same route. The police officers advised the BHK leader to descend from the hilltop on a different way.
"BHK finds the police behaviour incomprehensible and unacceptable and demands clarification," BHK Spokesman Tigran Urikhanyan said in conversation with 168.am.
"Why should a member of the National Security Council and head of a leading parliamentary faction be disallowed to take the same route as other officials," said Urikhanyan.
The BHK official says Tsarukyan demonstrated a reticent attitude towards the incomprehensible behaviour of the police.
