www.aravot.am has gotten a letter from Anahit Janpoladyan’s email, in which she informs that today people from districts of Akhalkalaki, Bogdanovka, Akhaltsikhe and Tsalka in Javakhk, as well as a set of villages of Javakhk are being brought to Armenia by buses. “The leaders of the mentioned districts also come with them. It is about those residents of Javakhk who also have Armenian passports and are included in the voting lists. According to our information, those people are brought to Armenia by the government of the Republic of Armenia to participate in the pre-election meeting of the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) to take place in Republic Square today and to vote for the RPA in the election to
take place on May 6,” is said in the letter. According to the sender, this process is organized and coordinated by Shirak Torosyan, no. 39 on the RPA list and an MP who was born in Javakhk, the leader of the patriotic union Javakhk and the deputy chairman of the Powerful Motherland Party. “According to the pre-election agreement, those people must go to different polling stations on the election day, May 6, and vote for hundreds of thousands of people absent from the republic. Since nobody knows residents of Javakhk in those polling stations. There are rumors also that the President of the Republic of Armenia has promised Shirak Torosyan an office in the government for the leader of his party, former deputy mayor of Yerevan Vardan Vardanyan, after the successful completion of the election,” reads the letter.
In regard to the information mentioned in the letter, Shirak Torosyan said during a conversation with www.aravot.am, “I don’t know who comes, who goes, what they do…” In response to the observation of www.aravot.am, “There’s no smoke without fire,” Shirak Torosyan said, “Then someone needs to blacken me. There is no such thing. The residents of Javakhk hardly manage to go for guest work… Are there people left in Javakhk to bring them here? It is a libel. Even if there is such a thing, I don’t know about it.”
