RUSSIAN-ARMENIAN BUSINESSMAN UNDER HOUSE ARREST WAS HOSPITALIZED
00:36, 28.11.2014
Russian-Armenian businessman Levon Hayrapetyan, who is under house
arrest in Moscow, was taken to hospital, where he underwent medical
treatment for one week.
The businessman's personal physician, neurologist Henri Bakunts
told Armenian News-NEWS.am that even though Hayrapetyan has been
discharged from hospital, he still needs to go through a daily course
of treatment.
"The [health] situation has improved, it has stabilized, but we cannot
assess in normal fashion, since a hospital regime is required for such
patients. I've made an arrangement with the local physicians that they
repeat this [medical treatment] course some time thereafter," he said.
Levon Hayrapetyan suffers from diabetes, and he also has cancer.
Bakunts added that Hayrapetyan's current health condition is unstable
due to the stroke which he had suffered.
Levon Hayrapetyan was detained in a Moscow airport on July 15 and
subsequently arrested. On July 24, the Russian Federation Investigation
Committee brought two criminal charges against him: embezzlement or
misuse, and money laundering. On September 12, the Russian-Armenian
businessman was charged with fraud, too. On October 3, however, a
Moscow district court ruled in favor of releasing Hayrapetyan from
prison and placing him under house arrest.
Even though Levon Hayrapetyan has health problems, he was kept in
prison for a long time. Hayrapetyan's detention will terminate on
December 15.
