Lawyer Norayr Norikyan says there are many questions in connection
with Monday's killing of six family members in Gyumri city.
Why should Russian border guards detain a Valery Permyakov, a Russian
citizen serving at the Russian military base N 102 in Gyumri who is
suspected of the murder, on the territory of Armenia and why should
the suspect remain in the custody of Russian law enforcement agencies?
Nor can the lawyer understand the behavior and actions of the Armenian
law enforcement bodies, Prosecutors Office and other structures.
The chief of the General Staff of Armed Forces of Armenia names
the Russian soldier 'a scoundrel.' But no one has the right to give
assessments until his guilt is proven," said Mr Norikyan.
The lawyer calls on Armenia's state and law enforcement agencies to
be united.
Mr Norikyan says Russia should hand over Permyakov to Armenia law
enforcement agencies and the case must be investigated by Armenians.
At the same time the lawyer does not exclude that the six people
might have been killed by someone else. "If the Russian soldier is
found guilty he might be given a life sentence under the Armenian
legislation. But it is not excluded that Permyakov might be found
inadequate and be acquitted," he said.
