After three and half years of absence Hamlet Ghushchyan returned
to Armenia to lead AR and Hayrenik channels reorganizing into Grant
Media. Hamlet Ghushchyan said he quit a well-paid job in Moscow to
come here. Hamlet Ghushchyan says we will meet on TV in September. In
the meantime, Hamlet Ghushchyan is apologizing on May 15 to Samvel
Babayan for shooting a film about him, entitled "The Lord of Hell
and Heaven" and calling him a general.
In his one-page printed repentance and the videotape of the same thing
Hamlet Ghushchyan repeats for three times that the information the film
was based on was provided by the former NKR Attorney-General Mavrik
Ghukasyan, the tax agencies and television of NKR. The information
was "false and distorted." "We did not have much time to think. We
did not possess facts" while working on the film, which was shot in
three days. Now Samvel Babayan has given him the record # 12200800 of
his file, which is the reality, says Hamlet Ghushchyan. Ghushchyan
who called Samvel Babayan "the lord of hell and heaven" relying on
the information provided by Mavrik Ghukasyan, now does not express
any opinion on Mavrik Ghukasyan, relying on the information provided
by Samvel Babayan, he simply blames the former official. Fortunately,
Ghushchyan does not blame the old lady, a viewer, who phoned Ghushchyan
after Samvel Babayan's arrest and demanded explanation. Of course,
Ghushchyan does not simply apologize to Samvel Babayan. He also thanks
God that Babayan "was released from prison, and justice prevailed
to some degree," and simultaneously honors him. Ghushchyan knows
very well that Samvel Babayan was pardoned, nonetheless, he uses the
following phrases to describe him: "Behavior of a knight. I would be
colder, more indifferent. Incredible. Humane, a behavior of a general,
a soldier. I am amazed by the qualities of this man. I did not meet
him while shooting the film. Now I have met him, three times. Every
time I discovered him anew and found out something new." At the last
meeting, Samvel Babayan stood up, shook hands with Hamlet Ghushchyan
and said he was glad to meet him. "He is not the way he appears to
be. Believe me," says Hamlet Ghushchyan.
Currently Ghushchyan is shooting a film about Samvel Babayan, entitled
"Insight from Aside" which will show that Samvel Babayan had 4 cars
instead of 86, his wife's jewelry cost 50 thousand dollars instead of
3 million dollars, he had 400 head of cattle instead of 20 thousand,
etc. "There will be an honest, frank word." Accusing Mavrik Ghukasyan
for several times, he repeats for several times that the second film
is his own initiative, he was not pressed, he will cover the expenses,
for his own conscience, as well as "for the public." Ghushchyan did
not conduct an opinion poll; he simply supposes that the society
needs a second film. In the second film, Hamlet Ghushchyan is going
to meet Mavrik Ghukasyan and ask him reproachfully - why did you give
us wrong information?
