PROTEST IN ARMENIA CONTINUES

Politics

A large-scale rally was held today in Armenian capital by the opposition. As much as 100,000 people attended the event.

Public anger has been fuelled by massive irregularities and fraud made in the course of election. All former presidential candidates but Artashes Geghamyan spoke at the rally.

At 16:30 local time protesters took to the streets in a march demanding to free those taken in police custody after Friday’s rally.

Police set a strong defence near the entrances of the Government building and the Procurator office. The Central Electioin Commission building has been surrounded by barbed wire.
