Kamo Khachatryan, the man wanted for the March 28 stabbing incident
in Gyumri city, has given himself up to police after a declared hint
for him.
Hrach Mirzoyan, a member of the Founding Parliament group, was
hospitalized shortly after an unknown knife-wielding man inflicted
stab wounds on him during a rally in Gyumri on Saturday. The stabbing
incident took place shortly after a group of young men began pelting
eggs at participants of the small rally. The Founding Parliament
leaders blamed the police inactivity for the violence, saying that
the authorities were behind the 'provocation' and those people were
'provocateurs' hired by the authorities to thwart the protest. The
radical opposition group also posted on the Internet a photograph
of a man who it said stabbed Mirzoyan. The man was identified as
Kamo Khachatryan.
"Khachatryan has surrendered to police and confessed to the crime,"
Sona Truzyan, Adviser to the Investigative Committee's Chair, said
to A1+.
Hrach Mirzoyan was stabbed in the abdomen in the melee and is still
in hospital.
