Yerevan /Mediamax/. Ombudsman of Armenia Karen Andreasyan said today that he has difficulty interpreting the Constitutional Court’s decision on accumulative pension system.

“I can hardly figure out whether the accumulative pension system is mandatory for me or not, either. As a lawyer and one having 40 lawyers in the Office, we are not able to interpret the 6th and 7th provisions of the final part of the Consitutional Court’s decision and the current discrepancy”, stated Andreasyan.

 

44 out of 150 system issues mentioned in the Ombudsman’s report made last year were fully addressed, he said today. According to the Ombudsman, the most errors were registered in the Prosecutor’s Office, judicial systems and sector of protection of economic rights (SRC and CPEC).

 

The Ombudsman also said that the government approved the Human Rights National Program on February 27 and the majority of the 109 proposals contained in the document  were accepted. According to him if the program is put into practice 180 system issues mentioned in the report will be addressed.

 

Touching upon the incident of violence against a citizen by associates of the Ministry of Justice, Karen Andreasyan said that his data were submitted to the Ministry of Justice and Criminal Service of Armenia.

 

“Even if there is a breach of ethics or law in the actions of the person, not a single official has the right to behave like this. We hope it will serve an example for all the officials who like acting with violence”, said Karen Andreasyan.
