Sarkisian Orders ‘More Meticulous=?UTF-8?B?4oCZIA==?=Probe Of 2008 Unrest

In what could be an attempt to placate opposition leader Levon Ter-Petrosian, President Serzh Sarkisian on Wednesday ordered Armenian law-enforcement authorities to investigate the 2008 post-election unrest in Yerevan with greater vigor.

Meeting with Armenia’s top security officials, prosecutors and judges, Sarkisian said he expects “new momentum and a pronounced activation” in efforts to identify and punish those responsible for the deadly street clashes between security forces and opposition protesters.

“Especially for me, this is a very important issue, and my demand addressed to you is to once again and more meticulously address even those circumstances where you think there can be nothing new,” he said. “Try to find new ways of solving those incidents.”
