LISKA'S PATRON G. KOSTANYAN, DRUGS AND CRIMINAL AUTHORITIES
Artur Sakunts, chairman of Helsinki Citizens' Assembly Vanadzor
office, told Gala TV that Liska, the ex-governor of Syunik Marz, is
under the patronage of the authorities, particularly the military
prosecutor Gevorg Kostanyan.
According to Sakunts, every action so far, including the statements of
the military prosecutor at the beginning of the process, the
investigation, the release of the video, the confiscation of a huge
amount of weapons from the governor's house and the following document
confirming legality of his weapons were aimed at proving Liska's
innocence.
Artur Sakunts says that charges brought against Artak Budaghyan were a
surprise. "According to their logic, now Artak Budaghyan will only
have to think for himself and the criminal case launched against him.
But I think the military prosecutor has made a big mistake," Sakunts
says.
The chairman of Helsinki Citizens' Assembly Vanadzor Office thinks
that the case should not be considered by the military prosecutor's
office because Kostanyan showed from the beginning his interest in
Surik Khachatryan.
According to Sakunts, Khachatryan should also be charged, based on the
same ground that they used to charge Artak Budaghyan saying that he
was in the yard of the ex-governor's house during the incident.
Dwelling on the statement of Budaghyan's lawyer that the blood test
revealed Surik Khachatryan's son's blood contained drugs, Sakunts said
that the military prosecutor was supposed to search the ex-governor's
house for drugs. Artur Sakunts says that he is challenging the
military prosecutor stating that drugs were kept in Surik
Khachatryan's house where the police did not dare to enter right after
the incident to confiscate even the video which somehow appeared in
the governor's office.
Besides, Sakunts says there was information that Liska's son gambled
away a lot of money in jail. I am surprised that the leadership of the
penitentiary did not issue any statement but I can say that one of the
local strongmen of Goris, Arsen has received this money, which
indicates a relation between Liska's family and these people.
