NKR rep calls for criminal charges against advocating land return

By Asbarez | Thursday, 29 October 2009

STEPANAKERT (Parliament News Service)-Any citizens who calls into question Karabakh's territorial integrity by advocating land concessions or other methods, should be charged by violating the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic Constitution, said Karabakh parliament member Armen Sargsyan.

Sargsyan, who is the chairman of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation-Movement 88 parliamentary bloc, argued that the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic constitution, which was approved by a democratic referendum, calls on the people and government of Karabakh to safeguard the territorial integrity of the republic.

He asserted that any attempts by a citizen to undermine the aforementioned principle cannot be deemed as a freedom of expression but rather an act against the constitution.
