Armenian News-NEWS.am has learned the above-said from the release which the ORO parliamentary election headquarters has disseminated.

To note, on March 12, there was an argument and scuffle after the ORO bloc’s election campaign in the said village. And during this incident, Police General Levon Yeranosyan’s brother Lernik, who is a colonel of the Police Internal Troops, fired shots into the air from his personal pistol.
