YEREVAN. – Zhoghovurd daily of the Republic of Armenia (RA) writes: On March 19, 2019, the Prosecutor General's Office of Russia had granted the petition of Armenia’s colleagues on the extradition of Levon Sargsyan, (…), a former MP of the RA NA [National Assembly], who is wanted for participation in a robbery. However, the process of returning him to Armenia has stalled for a long time.

Zhoghovurd daily has learned that the RF [Russian Federation] law enforcement system internally told its RA counterparts that there is an appeal process going on, and that is why they are not able to return him to Armenia yet. Moreover, it will be clear only after the consideration of the appeal whether or not he will be returned. At the same time, the RF assured the [RA] law enforcement agencies that his extradition process will take place if the appeal process is not delayed.

Let us remind that Levon Sargsyan, the once most reliable MP of [ex-President] Serzh Sargsyan, was declared wanted in 2018.
