Sasna Tsrer party claims that officers of NSS of Armenia carry out  persecutions against them

ArmInfo. The National Security Service of Armenia continues to work as a tool for political persecution against the Sasna Tsrer party. This is stated in the  party statement.

"A few weeks ago, we regarded attempts to hinder communication  between representatives of the party and residents of the cities of  Martuni, Gyumri and Vanadzor as local arbitrariness, however, when  these actions were repeated, it became obvious that all this is  coordinated from a single center," the party reads.  The statement  notes that before the meeting of the representatives of the party  with the residents of the city of Artik, the staff of the local  National Security Service began to clarify the content of these  meetings, monitor their progress while sitting in the cars. "An  attempt was also made to introduce" one's own person "into the party,  but it failed. In addition, the deputy head of the Akhuryan regional  branch Arthur Gevorgyan approached the party's supporters and urged  them to stay away from Sasna Tsrer representatives. The citizens also  said that he had visited supporters of parties at work and put  pressure on them. Finally, on October 31, the Armenian police called  the Sasna Tsrer office and tried to find out about the state of the  party's affairs, when did its members try to clarify why such  questions are asked, the police gave a vague explanation. 

Approximately the same actions were carried out by the officers of  the National Security Service of Ijevan, called the representatives  of the party for an interview and tried to exert psychological  influence on them.  In addition, there were cases when police  officers or civilians followed members of the party. All this  indicates that the persecution of the party has deep roots. We call  on the acting Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan to take the  necessary measures to stop the persecution against the Sasna Tsrer  party. We also urge to punish all those responsible for protecting  the rights and freedoms of citizens and political institutions, "the  statement reads.
