From today on police units will secure guard of Raffi Ovannisyan’s house round the clock which the police confirmed to the “Caucasian Knot” correspondent.
After gathering in “Svoboda” square about one hundred Ovannisyan’s supporters started for the building of CEC. The action was organized in form of a symbolic requiem. The participants laid a wreath with a mourning ribbon and an inscription “Death of unborn democracy” in front of the building of CEC of Armenia, Еpress.am reports.
