PreferredYEREVAN. – The October 27 crime will be uncovered one day, but we need a huge arsenal for that.
President of the National Assembly (NA) of Armenia, Galust Sahakyan, on Tuesday assured the aforesaid speaking to reporters in the NA.
“If it were possible, it would have been solved,” said Sahakyan. “We not only need human resources, but a huge arsenal that will seek, find, reveal. (…) We need to be confident that Armenia’s power will definitely find.”
As per the Armenian parliament speaker, the solving of this crime depends on everyone. In addition, in Sahakyan’s view, this is a legal matter which definitely will be solved one day.
Sixteen years have passed since the day of a terrorist attack, led by Nairi Hunanyan, in Armenia’s Parliament building.
Then Parliament Speaker Karen Demirchyan, PM Vazgen Sargsyan, Deputy Speakers Yuri Bakhshyan and Ruben Miroyan, Minister of Operative Affairs Leonard Petrosyan as well as MPs Armenak Armenakyan, Henrikh Abrahamyan, and Mikayel Kotanyan fell victims to the terrorists.
The judicial proceedings against the perpetrators of this tragedy were held from 2001 to 2003. As a result, six members of this group—leader Nairi Hunanyan, his brother Karen Hunanyan, their uncle Vram Galstyan as well as Derenik Bejanyan, Edik Grigoryan, and Ashot Knyazyan—were given a life sentence. Hamlet Sargsyan, on the other hand, was sentenced to fourteen years in prison.
The architects behind this terrorist attack, however, are unknown to this day.
