A protest in support of Hrachya Harutyunyan, the Armenian driver who is arrested in Russia, was staged Tuesday across the Russian Embassy in Brussels.   

The objective of the demonstration was to condemn the disrespectful attitude that was manifested against the Armenian citizen. 

Also, the protestors hung a women’s robe to the embassy fence. 

As Armenian News-NEWS.am informed earlier, a truck crashed into a passenger bus on July 13 outside Moscow, and it was found out that the truck driver was an Armenian citizen by the name of Hrachya Harutyunyan. The impact of the crash was so powerful that the bus had split in two. The accident claimed 18 lives and about 50 others were hospitalized. The court had Harutyunyan arrested on July 15. In addition, he was brought to the courtroom with slippers and a women’s robe. This fact caused widespread discontent among the Armenian public, and protests were staged across the Russian Embassy in Armenia.
