Notorious political figure Arkady Vardanyan and his friend Arsen
Avetisyan, who were arrested for attempted assassination of Arsen
Avetisyan Ruben Avetisyan, actually were suspected in organization
of attempted assassination of the top leadership of Armenia, a
Yerevan-based Hraparak newspaper writes after familiarizing with the
materials of the criminal case against Vardanyan and Avetisyan.
The paper writes that the National Security Service officers began
tracing Vardanyan and Avetisyan after certain Samvel Kuroyan told the
NSS that they were plotting a state coup with assassination of the
top leadership of Armenia. Afterwards, the paper writes, Kuroyan was
not summoned to the police for either interrogation or identification.
Arkady Vardanyan was arrested on 18 May for suspicion of plotting
attempted assassination of his friend Ruben Avetisyan together with
the latter's son Arsen Avetisyan. In the source of the investigation,
Ruben Avetisyan said he did not believe in the suspicions of the
Investigative Agency. Arkady Vardanyan arrived in Armenia from Russia
in 2011 and tried to seize power through public unrest. He was arrested
and jailed for several months. Later, the measure of restrain was
changed and he was set free. Afterwards, he left the country.
