Head of the Helsinki Civil Assembly Office in Vanadzor Artur Sakunts intends to bring Deputy Defense Minister Vladimir Gasparyan to justice for making a threat in one of Armenia's presses.

The deputy minister had threatened Head of "Asbarez" Club of Gyumri Levon Barseghyan that continuation of actions against the army would be viewed as an assault against the Armed Forces and that issues would be solved by the law.

"An official has no right to express himself that way against the expression of my opinion," Artur Sakunts told "A1+".

Head of "Asbarez" Club Levon Barseghyan confirmed that he had personally read Vladimir Gasparyan's text in which Gasparyan had called the representatives of non-governmental organizations concerned about the army "dogs".

"I can imagine what words a person who publicly calls people calling the minister "weak" "dogs" uses when speaking at a military unit," Head of "Asbarez" Club in Gyumri Levon Barseghyan said.

He says it would be nice if the deputy minister was involved in revealing the murders taking place in the army and if he can't he should, for example, "grow apricots and export them to Russia."

Generally, Barseghyan informs the deputy minister that "if he really wants to settle differences with them, he should appeal to the prosecutor's office."

Artur Sakunts also warns that Vladimir Gasparyan "has no right to get involved in politics".
