Yes, one wonders where these "clever" police officers were 11 years ago when RK came to power... But then again, it is hardly news that the authorities use this tactic. They did something similiar to Raffi H to stop his candidacy in 2003.

A ridiculous decision of Armenian police as actually almost every decision of regime's law enforcement agencies. If they didn't know about Nikol's whereabouts, how they want to determine, whether he was in Armenia or outside. What about term "residence" - in the legal sense it means having officially the first residence (and being registered) in Armenia and not staying without break in the country. This way they can refuse that certificate to everyone, who made in last five years some long holidays or was on study or business trips abroad. And does that interpretation also mean that no Armenian diplomat can leave his service and enter into politics, just because he might have been serving for some years in other countries? Indeed, MT, if only our police were so scrupulous some 11 years ago, we wouldn't have RK's untalented rule, his successor and today's situation...

Petros. Do you have any evidence that Petros is a "Sharqayin Hantsagorts". Sharqayin hantsagorts is Robert Kocharyan, who did not have Armenian residence and citizenship but occupied our country and killed people on March 1.

Nikol's case is right. Nikol will take the victory over low forces.

There seem to be 4 versions of Nikol Pashinian: Nikol A: He was in Armenia until February 26 when he became a wanted person and fled the country; Nikol B: Was in the Liberty Square from February 26 til March 1; Nikol C: Voluntarily surrendered to the police on June 1, 2009. He is now locked up at the KGB and has been put on "trial"; Nikol D: Arrived in Armenia on June 7 and is enjoying his freedom on the streets of Armenia. According to the police, the whereabouts of this Nikol are known but he has not been arrested. he is either not Nikol A, or they do not want to put him on trial because Nikol C is already on trial.
