Politics

Yesterday RA citizen 31 year-old Gegham Harutyunian was taken to Malatia-Sebastia Police station with no explanation.

“At about 8.30 three people, one of which was in a police uniform, came to our place and took my son. My wife was at home but they didn’t tell her anything”, Misha Harutyunian, detained Gegham Harutyunian’s father informed “A1+”.

Learning about the incident Misha Harutyunian went to Malatia-Sebastia police station, where he was told his son would be set free in 2 hours. “I have been waiting by now. My son is still there. Can’t I know why my son is arrested? What a country it is!”

Today Misha Harutyunian had to turn to the “Heritage” Party members with a request to find out where his son is and why he was taken into custody.

Member of the “Heritage” Party Zaruhi Postanjian informs: “It is evidently an illegal act. I had a talk with Harutyunian, Deputy Chief Officer of Malatia-Sebastia police station, and according to him Gegham Harutyunian was taken to the police department only this morning. He was inquired as a witness and was taken to the Department of Special Investigations for further inquiry.”

“Why shouldn’t he be in freedom if he is only a witness? Why can’t he hire a lawyer? Why aren’t his parents informed where he is?”, notices Zaruhi Postanjian.

In reply to the journalist’s question if his son had taken part in the opposition rallies, Misha Harutyunian answered: “Is there anyone who has not?”
