The information service of the Ministry of Defense informed that the
deputy minister, Lieutenant-General Vladimir Gasparyan, the leadership
of the Military Police and the investigation service met on October
14 with the relatives of servicemen killed during their service in
the army.
They made clarifications and informed about progress in the
investigation of the death of their sons, answered their questions.
In an interview with the Armed Forces TV program, the deputy minister
dwelled on the issue of accidents in the army which is in the focus
of the society now. In regard to the deaths reported in the past week,
the deputy minister noted that the circumstances have been clarified,
investigation is underway to measure the guilt of each person
involved. Vladimir Gasparyan noted that there is some difficulty
in dealing with cases which date over ten years but assured that
the crimes will be revealed, and those guilty will be punished. He
stated that they do reveal and punish and will make further effort
to minimize accidents in the army.
Responding to accusations that proceedings are launched into causing
someone to commit a suicide, he says they launch proceedings in
accordance with the characteristics which are obvious after an
incident. If we investigated a murder and discovered in the end that
it was a suicide, similar accusations would be made. The suicide may
change to murder during the investigation. Believe me, more people
would protest if a murder were later announced to be a suicide.
Dwelling on the initiatives which try to politicize and speculate on
accidents in the army, Vladimir Gasparyan announced that they cannot
be really sorry for the army because they are financed or paid from
foreign countries. He says all they care is more accidents to make
more money on them. These people have never even passed by the army,
he says. "We will account for our acts, you please don't bind your
political dreams with the army, army has never been in politics, army
has always been outside politics, and will not allow provocations to
involve the army in politics," Vladimir Gasparyan says, "A few day
ago I read the statement of one of those groups in newspapers which
demand information to be published on thousands of servicemen. What
other orders did you get from your customers to learn about our
army? Maybe you should publish the list and then stand in line with
all your foreign foundations," the press release runs.
Note that the initiative Army in Reality had urged the minister of
defense to publish information on the period of 12 May 1994 to 30
September 2011, including the names, address of servicemen who died,
is missing, and underwent violence, the circumstances of death,
disappearance, violence; the list of servicemen who were held
responsible for violation of regulations, murders, other military
crimes, including their positions and punishment; the number of
officers who were convicted for military crimes, served sentence and
continue their service in the army; the number of servicemen who were
demobilized for health problems; the list of officers who were trained
in foreign military institutions and who still serves in the army;
information about the military service of the Armenian high-ranking
officials; the list of organizations which won the tenders for military
procurement, including food, medicine, uniforms, stationary.
