YEREVAN. – News of the next resignation was spread on Friday which, however, is not yet formally confirmed, Haykakan Zhamanak daily writes.       

“There was a leak from the ruling circles that Criminal Correctional Department (CCD) Head Hayk Harutyunyan has resigned. According to the same sources, Armenia’s former Police Chief will be appointed Governor of Gegharkunik Region.

To clarify the news of Hayk Harutyunyan’s resignation, Justice Minister’s spokesperson Karine Kalantaryan suggested asking [President] Serzh Sargsyan’s spokesperson. The latter did not answer the newspaper’s calls, and instead CCD spokesperson Gor Ghlechyan denied this news.
