ArmInfo. Deputy Head of the Armenian Police, Colonel Gevork Mheryan,
who curated the passport and visa issues, was killed yesterday at 8:30
PM at the door of his flat in Barbyus Street. The killer shot at the
head of Mheryan when the latter was leaving the elevator. G. Mehryan
was 34 years old. He had a wife a three small children.
Prior to his appointment a deputy Head of the Armenian Police in
early July, 2008, Mheryan worked assistance of the Armenian President
Serzh Sargsyan. To recall, the passport and visa sphere has become
"the first victim" of the president-announced corruption-fight which
led to mass personnel reshuffles.
The Visa and Registration Office has actually become a showpiece from
the viewpoint of an elementary order and supremacy of law available. In
view of this, the observers in Armenia connect the murder of a young
colonel with possible "signal" to the president not to take abrupt
steps. The Police of Armenia do not yet comment on the occurrence.
