Eyewitness’s home surrounded again
Support A1+!Hrazdan police officers wanted to enter the home of eyewitness Tatul Karapetyan's sister again this morning at 8:30 in search of Karapetyan, who is eyewitness for Sasun Mikayelyan's case. However, Karapetyan's sister, Mrs. Nazik, did not open the door.
Let us remind that the homes of Karapetyan in the Meghradzor village land his sister's home on Shinararner Street in Yerevan are surrounded by police officers since yesterday. According to the eyewitness's sister, the house in the Meghradzor village is under the supervision of 4 police cars.
"They say that they want to protect Tatul from the people, but they have to protect him from the police and not the people," said Mrs. Nazik to "A1+". She is amazed and doesn't know what crime his brother committed for the police to protect him from the people.
"They are doing this so that he won't show up to court and insist on his testimonies given during the preliminary inquiry. For a week, police officers beat him and forced him to testify against Sasun Mikayelyan, saying that he had given him money and a command," said the sister.
According to her, her brother recognized Sasun Mikayelyan only as a Deputy.
Let us remind that the judge had not questioned the eyewitness during Mikayelyan's last trial and the next trial will be held on May 18 at 12 p.m.
Secretary of the Ombudsman Grigori Grigoriants advised the eyewitnesses to call the Ombudsman's office if they have any problems with the police.
