YEREVAN. – Member of the Armenian parliament has applied to Chief of Police to ensure safety of her family.

Zaruhi Postanjyan, MP from Heritage party, addressed Vladimir Gasparyan asking to ensure her safety and safety of her family.

Her request came in response to an interview of Deputy Sport Minister Khachik Asryan with yerkir.am website. Commenting on Postanjyan’s harsh question to the president, Asryan said Postanjyan should be burnt alive.

During the question and answer session at the PACE plenary session in Strasbourg, France, on October 2, Zaruhi Postanjyan had asked Armenia’s President Serzh Sargsyan the following question:

“You have appeared here [in the PACE session] not by the will of the people, but [rather] as a consequence of organized crime, the theft of the Armenian people’s vote. Therefore you cannot de jure represent the will and right of the Armenian people. [So,] I’ll give you another question. Have you been to a casino in Europe and lost 70 million euros there? And who paid that amount in your stead?”
