YEREVAN. – The response has already come in to the set of questions sent to the General Prosecutor’s Office and the Government by the Armenian National Assembly’s (NA) opposition Armenian National Congress, and ARF Dashnaktsutyun and Heritage parties. And these questions were referring to the Harsnaqar Restaurant affair, Haykakan Zhamanak (HZ) daily writes.

“This was told to HZ reporter by Heritage’s [NA] Faction leader Ruben Hakobyan. The [Prosperous Armenia Party] likewise had taken part in the preparation of these set of questions, but it stayed away later, arguing that it will not join the initiative partaken by Heritage,” Haykakan Zhamanak writes.  

As Armenian News-NEWS.am informed earlier, an incident had occurred at capital city Yerevan’s Harsnaqar Restaurant on June 17, where several military doctors including Edgar Mikoyan, Arkadi Aghajanyan, Garik Soghomonyan, Artak Bayadyan and Vahe Avetyan were brutally beaten by security personnel. And Vahe Avetyan died in hospital on June 29. A criminal case is launched and the Police have detained six people.

The Restaurant’s owner is senior ruling party MP, Football Federation of Armenia President, and businessman Ruben Hayrapetyan, who on July 3 formally submitted his resignation from his parliamentary seat.
