    The Moscow City Court has left Armenian businessman Levon Ayrapetyan
    under arrest, as originally decided by the Basmanny Court, ITAR-TASS
    reports.

    Ayrapetyan's lawyers wanted their client released from the
    investigative detention center for travel restrictions or a bail of
    30 million rubles. Famous Russian cultural figures Mark Zakharov and
    Alexander Shirvindt and the head of the Armenian Apostolic Church in
    Russia vouched for the release of Ayrapetyan.

    The suspect took part in video questioning from the Matrosskaya
    Tishina Jail. He said that he was in bad health condition.

    According to investigators Ayrapetyan has dual citizenship and owns
    real estate in Monaco. Investigators suspect him of wasteful spending
    and laundering of money.
