Verdicts of former Foreign Minister Alexander Arzumanian and Suren Sirunian, charged with last year's post-election deadly clashes, were announced minutes ago.

They were both found guilty under Article 225 of Armenia's Criminal Code (organization of mass disorders).

Alexander Arzumanian was sentenced to five and Suren Sirunian to four years of prison. They were immediately set free from the courtroom under the amnesty.

The acquitted MPs are now by the Statue of Miasnikian with their friends and proponents.
