Law enforcement officers have raided the apartment of Karen Simonyan, head of the “Mother Armenia” Faction of the Gyumri Council of Elders, where they are conducting a search, according to Hraparak daily.

It is noteworthy that the Gyumri Council of Elders meeting will start in just half an hour, but Simonyan will not be able to attend it.

Karen Simonyan is an MP candidate from the opposition “Armenia” Alliance, and law enforcement officers on Wednesday had publicized a recording allegedly with his participation.
