NSS chief refuses to unveil details about fighting against fakes

Director of National Security Service Artur Vanetsyan refused to unveil any details about the criminal case against the author of High Spirit Armenia Open Society fake page.

“Criminal case has been filed with the features of the Article 226 of the Criminal Code. If you open this article you will see everything is written there. I cannot present any details. Examination is underway,” Vanetsyan said.

Asked what other fake pages are under the NSS’s target, Vanetsyan said the NSS does not state about its actions beforehand.

“If we reveal other fakes, you will learn about it,” Vanetsyan said.

The NSS director noted that a person has a right to come up anonymously.

“Anonymity is person’s right and no one can violate this right. But another thing is when a person comes up with the data of other person and spreads information containing criminal elements in the web or among people.”
