During the eight hours since pools opened inArmeniaat 8am, the Human Rights Defender’s Office has received 151 calls via its election hotline.

Most of the calls earlier in the day had been about the disappearing ink fiasco reported from a number of polling stations.

Subsequent calls have mostly focused on long lines at the polls and incidents where voters have been allegedly bused in.

Nara Karmirshalyan, who heads the public affairs at the Office, says that by the time investigators reach the scene of alleged bribe giving, there are no traces left.
