Spokesperson for the Armenian National Security Service commented on reports by the Turkish press saying that leader of Strong Turkey Party Tuna Beklevic was arrested in Yerevan.   

Talking to NEWS.am correspondent, Artsvin Baghramyan stated that during today’s press conference Tuna Beklevic and Baybars Orsek announced they had crossed the Armenian-Turkish border. Later they were invited to the Armenian National Security Service to specify the details.

As NEWS.am reported, earlier this month, the Turkish media spread information that Tuna Beklevic with his party fellows crossed the Armenia-Turkey border along the River Akhuryan and entered Armenia. However, later Deputy Chief of Border Service, Russian Federal Security Service, Colonel Andrey Guzeyev refuted the reports.

However, at today’s press conference Strong Turkey Party members again claimed they had crossed the border, stressing that Russian border guards are well aware of it.
