PRAGUE (Armenpress)'Member of the European Parliament, Czech Senator
Jaromà - r ÅtÄ?tina, Discussed the arrest of his childhood friend,
Armenian businessman and philanthropist Levon Hayrapetian in a public
statement published on Facebook. ÅtÄ?tina expresses his concerns
regarding Hayrapetian's arrest, saying: `Levon is my childhood friend.
We have crossed the Siberian rivers together. I am afraid for his
life.' Jaromà - r ÅtÄ?tina also issued a statement calling upon the
President of the Russian Vladimir Putin to release Levon Hayrapetian.
Levon Hayrapetian's health condition was assessed as `satisfactory,'
Hayrapetian's spokesman Matsak Poladian told Armenpress.
Poladyan noted: `This morning I was informed that Levon Hayrapetian's
health conditions were assessed as satisfactory. This gives us hope.
They [the Russian authorities] also promised to take him to a hospital
or place him under house arrest in the coming days.'
Hayrapetian suffers from diabetes and cancer and recently experienced
a stroke, requiring him to receive regular medical attention.
Hayrapetian, 65, was arrested by Russian Federal Security Service
officials on July 15. Last Thursday, a Moscow court allowed the
businessman's two-month imprisonment while investigators conduct a
probe into his alleged criminal connections and involvement in some
illegal financial dealings. Official charges against Hayrapetian are
expected to be brought on July 24.
Hayrapetian is considered to be one of the wealthiest Armenians in the
world. He is known to have invested millions of dollars into
developing Nagorno-Karabakh's infrastructure and renovating the area's
historical-cultural monuments. His charity included a mass wedding for
hundreds of Karabakh couples in 2008 and sponsorship of the
construction of a military college in Martakert.
