YEREVAN, MARCH 16, NOYAN TAPAN. According to the statement
spread by Yerevan V. Brusov State Linguistic University
rectorate, the video recording of the incident connected with
former employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, currently a
photocorrespondent of the Chorrord Ishkhanutyun and Aravot
newspapers Gagik Shamshian is at University's disposal and will
be provided if necessary. According to the statement, G.
Shamshian "acted cynically, unworthy of a journalist, by
violating University's internal disciplinary rules he broke into
the University hindering the educational process. An incident
took place during his illegal actions, as a result of which,
according to media, G. Shamshian received bodily injuries." "We
are sorry for the incident, at the same time we consider it
necessary to mention that the incident is a result of not
preventing fulfillment of G. Shamshian's professional duties, but
his hooligan actions," the University rectorate affirms. The
rectorate considering "inadmissible" the conduct of the guard
records that "the guard should not have yielded to the
provocation initiated by G. Shamshian."
According to the statement authors, all that is the result
of the "instigating irresponsible" actions done by persons
acting on behalf of the Miasin movement lately. "Unfortunately,
the law enforcement bodies did not give a legal estimation to
these actions and did not make an attempt to suspend these
incidents through actions proceeding from the law."
With the statement the University rectorate called all
lecturers and students for keeping quiet and not taking steps
that can hinder University's normal educational process. At the
same time the University warned that law enforcement bodies'
negligence, their status of an observer to impudent and
instigating actions indirectly support such actions and can
seriously shatter the educational process.
