"Wherever they go, we'll find and bring them back, you rest assured," Kocharyan told supporters on Thursday, June 3. "People must be held accountable for what happened; and that must be achieved through justice in the Republic of Armenia." Kocharyan is heading the alliance of the Armenian Renaissance party and the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (Dashnaktsutyun) in the upcoming snap parliamentary elections in June. Acting Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan announced on March 18 that Armenia will hold snap parliamentary elections on June 20.
