YEREVAN. – The court hearing on the criminal case of Nazik Amiryan, the wife of retired General Manvel Grigoryan—an ex-MP and former chairman of the Yerkrapah Volunteer Union of Armenia— resumed Tuesday.

On November 26 of last year, the court had decided to separate the court cases of Grigoryan and Amiryan and examine them separately.

Manvel Grigoryan is charged with illegal possession of weapons and ammunition, misappropriation of property, tax evasion, waste of state funds, and organizing the stealing of property through extortion.

Nazik Amiryan is accused of illegally storing ammunition and explosives in their three houses—and with prior consent with her husband, son Arman Grigoryan, and some other persons not identified by the investigation—as well as committing theft.
