YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 6, NOYAN TAPAN. "The murder of the deputy head of the police Gevorg Mherian proves once again that Armenia's law enforcement system does not carry out satisfactory work - within the framework of professional powers reserved for it by law, and at the moment we all are vulnerable", the head of "Heritage" parliamentary faction Armen Martirosian said at the February 6 briefing, noting that the incident is blameworthy and regrettable. "The law enforcement system is more engaged in intervention in political processes and convincing people not to participate in meetings," he said. The secretary of the faction Larisa Aleverdian expressed an opinion that as long as those who ordered the crimes committed so far, including the March 1 killings, are not revealed, "we all are in a very difficult situation as the killers are still at large". The representative of "Heritage" Vardan Khachatrian said: "In connection with Mherian's murder, we have establsihed another circumstance: the idea that problems are solved here by means of bullets and blood is becoming more and more embedded in public opinion, which, perhaps, is the most undesirable phenomenon".
