ArmInfo. The Central Election Commission of Armenia on September 23 drew up a protocol on depriving MP from the ruling bloc "My Step" Arsen Julfalakyan of his lawmaker's mandate.
The CEC also approved the protocol on the delivery of this mandate to Narek Ghahramanyan. Ghahramanyan in the electoral list followed Julfalakyan in the proportional list of the "My Step" bloc. The protocol will be sent to the National Assembly.
To note, earlier Speaker of the RA Parliament Ararat Mirzoyan announced that MP Arsen Julfalakyan, the silver medalist of the Olympic Games in Greco-Roman wrestling, laid down his lawmaker's mandate. Julfalakyan himself stated that he made this decision because of contradictions with Minister of Education, Science, Culture and Sports Arayik Harutyunyan.
