On August 2, military doctor, father of two small kids, Vahe Avetyan
would have celebrated his 33rd birthday. But weeks before his birthday
he was beaten up to death by the bodyguards of the oligarch Ruben
Hairapetyan in his Harsnakar restaurant.
Lawyers dealing with Vahe Avetyan~Rs case issued a statement that
the police are protracting the investigation on purpose not providing
the records of the case to the lawyers as is required by law.
After Vahe~Rs murder, the police used to assure that all those guilty
would be punished. The society is concerned whether all those guilty
will be punished and whether Ruben Hairapetyan is among them who,
according to some press reports, was in Harsnakar during the incident
and knew about it.
Laying down his mandate, Ruben Hairapetyan issued a heart-breaking
statement expressing pain and regrets that he had not been in the
restaurant that day otherwise he would have stopped the hand raised
to hit Vahe.
Now, someone seems to be holding the hand of the police to avoid
too much disclosure about Vahe~Rs case. Anyway, the statement by
lawyers hints at this, and until the police does not allow them to
get acquainted with the details of the case, his hint will seem true.
On August 2, the representatives of the civil society will hold a
protest action in front of the police demanding a full revelation of
the case.
It seems that Harsnakar case is a ~Sprecinct~T level case in terms of
revelation and it had to be sent to court already and all the questions
had to be answered. 40 days have already passed but the society has
no clear image of what happened in Harsnakar and who is to blame.
No doubt the ruling system will cover up ~Sits people~T if there is
the slightest opportunity for that. So, here the role of the society is
very important. If the society is consistent and does not leave alone
the law enforcers, then it will be very difficult for the system to
cover up this case. Otherwise, once it may turn out that Vahe Avetyan
was not killed by Ruben Hairapetyan~Rs bodyguard but by thunder.
The calculation of the power is clear ~V to protract time until the
interest of the society fades away. But this calculation, mildly
speaking, is not correct since in Armenia there is a knowledgeable
society which understands the calculation of the government and
which is not led by calculations but such values as rights, freedoms,
rule of law, justice and injustice.
The difference between calculations and values is that the calculation
is temporary, while values are permanent. In Armenia, a stable society
is under formation which gradually highlights the temporariness of
the power. Consequently, Vahe will stay, will always be, and all the
calculations based on oblivion are doomed.
