On June 17 the National Assembly of Armenia will convene extraordinarily, NA President Hovik Abrahamyan said in the parliament on June 13 without specifying the agenda of the meeting.
In the meanwhile, the Parliament Committee for Ethics did not discuss behavior of Samvel Aleksanyan. The Committee declined the application by Transparency International over S. Aleksanyan's behavior during the past elections to the Elders Council of Yerevan. The Committee motivated its refusal to discuss the application with 'lack of evident substantiation (document substantiating violation, including proofs) of violations.' In addition, the Committee declared that the issue was not within its competence.
To recall, on May 24, 2013 Transparency International applied to the Committee asking to consider Samvel Alexanyan's behavior to intervene in the voting process and establish "order" in the polling station during Yerevan Elders Council. As a proof, Transparency International brought the video available on the web. The Committee declared that the video 'bears no relation to the appeal.' In the meanwhile, one can clearly see on video that the parliamentarian attended the polling station to take control over the situation. In addition, Aleksanyan confirms that in response to a journalist's question.
