The fact that the secret recording of a conversation between Vartan Oskanian and Levon Zurabyan has appeared on the internet has caused serious discussion in recent days. Different groups of society make different comments on this fact – struggle against the opposition, an action against concrete people.
Vardan Harutyunyan, the director of the Center for Freedom and Rights, called this action “prosecutable” during a conversation with www.aravot.am and went into detail: “Certainly, it is illegal, when what people say is recorded without informing them in advance or without a warrant. This testifies to the fact that there is no rule of law in the Republic of Armenia. They secretly record, put it on the internet, and no one – I am talking about the government – wants to launch an investigation. It is obvious who the authors of this are. It is a great pity that such a thing is possible in Armenia, that the government of the Republic of Armenia works in that style and tries to struggle against the opposition that way.”
V. Harutyunyan said during a conversation with us that what had happened was not a coincidence, since it was not the first time. He concluded: “This is a prosecutable deed and should be punished properly, and it will be punished in the future, if not today.”
