Armenian Police Chief Alik Sargsyan has said he will invite the
lawyer of the arrested former Chief of Traffic Police, Margar Ohanyan,
for explanations for saying that Ohanyan testified against Sargsyan.
Sargsyan made the statement at a briefing after he was told by
reporters that it was Margaryan's lawyer who said it.
However, Sargsyan said he did not believe the lawyer could have
said that.
"There are some officials ... who are engaged in such bad things,
want to spoil the credits earned by people, their prestige," explained
Sargsyan.
Margar Ohanyan was arrested over a large-scale embezzlement of
petroleum and was dismissed from his position after the arrest.
Alik Sargsyan further denied reports that he was invited to
interrogation. He also promised to personally inform the press about
it, if it ever happens.
"All those who trump up things are well aware that it will in no way
harm me. I am also a lawyer, I know the laws," said he.
Sargsyan also said he would refuse a lawyer's service if accused,
and would defense himself as he is innocent.
"There is no other powerful weapon than that," said Sargsyan.
