POLICE OFFICER NAMED AS VICTIM IN CASE AGAINST SHANT HARUTYUNYAN SAYS HE WASN'T INJURED IN CLASHES
07.11.2014 20:56 epress.am
Police Lieutenant Colonel Andranik Arakelyan said in court today
that he received no bodily injuries and his clothes were not torn
during the November 5, 2013 march organized by Shant Harutyunyan and
his friends. Arakelyan said only that his eyes stung from the petrol
bombs. The lieutenant colonel is named as a victim in the case and
it was in this capacity that he testified at the Court of General
Jurisdiction of Kentron and Nork Marash Administrative Districts of
Yerevan today.
Arakelyan also said he didn't intend to disrupt Harutyunyan's planned
march; he simply wanted participants to walk on the sidewalk.
Harutyunyan asked Arakelyan whether he knew that he simply wanted to
cross Mashtots Avenue and walk on the sidewalk across the street. The
lieutenant colonel answered in the negative.
Harutyunyan explained that he didn't want to walk up and cross the
street at the crossing, as he was afraid there would be provocations
there, and he simply wanted to cross Mashtots Avenue and walk on the
sidewalk on the other side of the street.
Arakelyan continued his testimony in court at time of publication.
