The criminal case a military doctor beaten by the security guards
of oligarch Ruben Hayrapetyan may continue traveling from office
to office, ex Military Prosecutor of Armenia, opposition MP Gagik
Jangiryan told journalists on Wednesday.
He said that this red tape is part of the corrupt atmosphere in the
Armenian police.
"The justice reforms planned by the Government in its new program are
very deficient, especially in the part concerning the investigation
process," Jangiryan said.
Member of the ruling Republican Party of Armenia Koryun Nahapetyan
said that no matter who will investigate the case.
"What matters is that the investigation should be fair and that those
guilty should be punished," the MP said, adding that he is sure that
the investigation will be fair.
To remind, Hayrapetyan's security guards severely beat military doctor,
Major Vahe Avetyan in Harsnakar restaurant on Sunday. Avetyan was taken
to hospital and underwent brain surgery. Doctors say he is in a very
bad condition. On Tuesday the Prosecutor General instructed that the
criminal case instituted by the Defense Ministry be transferred to
the Yerevan Police Department. Some media say that Hayrapetyan and
the chief of the department Nersik Nazaryan are on good terms and
assume that the latter may help to cover up the crime.
