The opposition minority in Armenia's parliament demanded on Thursday that the National Assembly launch a separate inquiry into last month's deadly violence at a Yerevan restaurant owned by a controversial businessmen close to the government.
In a statement issued on behalf all opposition groups represented in the legislature, the Armenian National Congress (HAK) said the parliament must meet for an emergency session next week and set up an ad hoc commission tasked with investigating the June 17 incident.
Levon Zurabian, the HAK's parliamentary leader, insisted that the initiative is backed by the opposition Dashnaktsutyun and Zharangutyun parties as well as the opposition-leaning Prosperous Armenia Party (BHK).
