YEREVAN. – Police rejects rumors circulated by media that voting lists include names of dead people.

The rumors do not correspond to reality, police said in a statement. Under the law, a person having registered the death case informs the Central Register. However, it is possible that relatives of the dead do not inform the Civic Status Registration Departments or Register by presenting the death certificate. As a result, the dead remain in the voting lists.

Hence, police calls on all the citizens to turn to the Passport and Visa Department of the Police of Armenia.
