Citing President Serzh Sarkisian's instructions, an Armenian law-enforcement agency subordinated to state prosecutors announced on Thursday a "thorough review" of its controversial criminal investigation into the 2008 post-election violence in Yerevan.

The Special Investigative Service (SIS) said it will again look into factual evidence, various testimonies and the results of forensic tests related to the dramatic events of March 1-2, 2008. It did not rule the possibility of more such tests to be conducted in the coming months.

In a separate statement, the SIS also urged Armenians who witnessed those events to provide relevant information to investigators. It pledged to ensure their security and the secrecy of their testimony.
