The kidnapping and beating of Artak Khachatryan, a member of the
opposition Prosperous Armenia Party (BHK), was an organized crime,
Khachatryan's brother Artyom Khachatryan told reporters in Yerevan
on Monday.
"Artak has nothing to do with the criminal and oligarchic system. He
has been engaged in social activities only in recent years," said
Artyom Khachatryan.
He believes that the incident that occurred to his brother declared an
outright war against society. "It does not matter whether they targeted
at Artak or someone else, wether it was a BHK member or a member of
some other party, e.g. Armenian National Congress (HAK). The attack
comes to prove that the criminal and oligarchic system is interwoven
with the government," he said.
Artyom Khachatryan calls on law enforcement agencies to immediately
reveal the details of the incident; their negligence will prove that
the attack was ordered by the authorities.
He also said that new evidence has emerged in connection with the
incident. They already have a footage which fixed the car, its license
plate number and colour and the time of the incident. The video will
be sent to law enforcement agencies and the Investigative Committee.
Artak continues to remain at the intensive care unit. He is in a
critical but stable condition.
Artak Khachatryan was attacked Saturday afternoon in Yerevan by
three masked men who forced him into a car and took him to an unknown
direction. He was later found near his home in an unconscious state.
