The Armenian police have gathered sufficient evidence to indict the
six men - Garik Margaryan, Norayr Hayrapetyan, Arman Khachatryan,
Arman Baghdasaryan, Arthur Babloyan and David Adamyan - for beating
up military doctor Vahe Avetyan at the Harsnakar restaurant on June 17.
Therefore the part related to the six suspects was separated on August
8, with the preliminary investigation completed and the materials
provided to the parties, press service of police reported.
Considering that it was reported that besides the above mentioned six
men, other persons were also involved in the crime, investigation is
underway to identify these individuals, the source said.
It was revealed on August 1 that the police had toughened criminal
charges against the six beating suspects.
The men, most of them security guards working at the Harsnakar
restaurant, were initially charged under one article of the Criminal
Code dealing with deliberate physical injuries. They risked between
five and ten years' imprisonment.
Now investigators formally accuse them of three counts of assault that
could result in lengthier prison sentences. One of the accusations
relates to violent attacks resulting in deaths.
Police investigators say there is no evidence of Ruben Hayrapetyan's
direct involvement in the incident.
