persons increased by 638. At the same time, 161 out of the total
number were cases of intended bodily harm, Armenia's Deputy Attorney
General said.

Sargsyan said the cases of inflicting grievous harm increased by 25
as compared with the same period last year.
Armenia recorded 41 murders and 23 murder attempts during the mentioned
period. Deputy Attorney General noted several shortcomings registered
during investigations of felonies. In particular, the overwhelming

several examinations are appointed. Besides, the protocols contain
violations. Sargsyan offered the regional and community prosecutors
to bring such cases under personal control.
