In Armenia, the parliamentary commission for studying March 1, 2008, events plans to visit military warehouse

The interim parliamentary commission, which was set up for studying the events on March 1, 2008, in Yerevan has made a decision to visit one of the warehouses of the Ministry of Defence (MoD) with the aim to check the facts presented in the report of the Fact-Finding Group about the events that on that the army warehouse was issuing military uniform to oligarchs' bodyguards.

On September 8, a group of members of the interim parliamentary commission, headed by Gurgen Arsenyan, will go to one of the MoD's warehouses to check up the information, which was announced by oppositionists from the Fact-Finding Group on March 1 events. Aram Karapetyan, a member of the parliamentary commission and leader of the "New Times" Party, has voiced against this initiative. "I've always stood for clearing out the circumstances, but never - for illusion of work. More than a year has passed; everything has changed at the warehouse; all the traces and evidences have been liquidated long ago," Mr Karapetyan said.

The mandate of the interim parliamentary commission expires on September 15; and at the forthcoming four-day session of the National Assembly it is planned to discuss the final report of the commission.
