Entrepreneur Silva Hambardzumyan said she was attacked by Syunik
marzpet (regional councillor) Suren Khachatryan outside the Armenia
Marriott Hotel at around 6 pm on Monday.
"I had a meeting at Marriott Hotel. After it ended, I was preparing to
go broadcast live at Yerkir Media, when Syunik's marzpet approached
me and attacked me like a hooligan. He was trying to kick me, then
hit me with his hands," Hambardzumyan said with tears in her eyes at
a press conference following the incident.
Recall, the entrepreneur had declared last week that Khachatryan stole
102 million drams' worth of equipment from the Litchqvaz-Tey mine,
which belonged to Hambardzumyan before the license for her Sipan 1 gold
mining company was revoked by authorities. Following the accusations,
Khachatryan publicly threatened to take Hambarzumyan to court, saying
that he purchased the equipment. This was followed by Hambardzumyan
declaring that the marzpet and his son were drug addicts and she is
prepared to shame the marzpet in court.
On Monday, Hambardzumyan stated that Khachatryan can't sue her since
the facts are on her side and the marzpet's only course of action is
to cause fear and be a hooligan.
The entrepreneur mentioned that witnessing the attack were MPs Khachik
Manukyan and Samvel Sargsyan, who grabbed Khachatryan and said,
"You're not a hooligan, are you?"
"We've gone to the police; [now] I have to go give a testimony. He
is a marzpet in the country, can you imagine, he's a hooligan. Well
now imagine what Syunik marz has to deal with. I won't be silent;
I stand by what I said; let him return the money, publicly apologize
for his dirty words," said Hambardzumyan, referring to the price of
the equipment.
