The High Court in Prague upheld a 22-year prison sentence for Armenian mob boss Andranik Soghoyan.

He was convicted for ordering the murder of an Armenian businessman. The hired killer Timur Tretyakov, a native of Ukraine, killed the wrong man and stabbed another one by mistake. He was sentenced to 22 years in jail.

The appeals court also upheld prison sentences of 12 to 18 years for four of Soghoyan’s accomplices, Czech News Agency reported. A lower level court twice acquitted Soghoyan only for the appeals court to send the matter back for rehearing. A new judge took over the case and the five defendants were convicted, The Prague Post reported.

At the moment Armenian criminal is not in the country and most likely will not return to the Czech Republic.
