    YEREVAN. - The investigation into the May 4 balloon explosion is
    completed, and the case is transferred to court, Armenia's Police
    General Department of Investigation division chief Arsen Ayvazyan
    told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

    To note, Serob Bozoyan, 54, has been charged with manufacturing and
    selling products not meeting safety regulations and causing harm to
    two or more people. And a signature bond, to not leave the country,
    was specified as his restraining order.

    Bozoyan is engaged in filling balloons. He does not have a company
    and he personally takes respective orders.

    As Armenian News-NEWS.am informed earlier, a tragedy occurred during
    the ruling Republican Party of Armenia's parliamentary election
    campaign rally and concert held at capital city Yerevan's Republic
    Square on May 4. Hundreds of balloons filled with gas exploded and
    started to burn. Subsequently, the balloons' melted rubber fell on
    the event participants. Those near the stage were affected the most,
    and 154 people were injured.

    Subsequently, German plastic surgeon Adrian Daigler, who was invited
    to Armenia upon the instruction of President and RPA leader Serzh
    Sargsyan, operated on nine patients who suffered injuries from the
    balloon blast. And the last patient was discharged on July 2.
