Comedian Hayk Marutyan questions the proper installment of a web camera in a polling station
Comedian Hayk Marutyan, most commonly known as Kargin Hayko, has registered a violation at 9/47polling station with a web camera installed behind a voting booth.
Marutyan, who is included in the team of local observers, told journalists he noticed a web camera installed in the back of a polling booth that clearly violates the secrecy of voting during elections.
Chairman of the precinct electoral commission Ara Kilichyan, however, insisted the camera doesn’t work, dismissing the case as ‘insignificant’.
Marutyan next pointed that cameras installed at 9/47 and 9/48 polling stations do not operate, while the state had allocated significant amounts for obtaining that equipment.
