Man who Cursed Former MP Detained by Police

Yerevan police received a call at 8:25 pm on Dec. 15 that a dispute could be heard near the home of former Member of Parliament Napoleon Azizyan.

Police who arrived on the scene discovered that Aharon V., 30, standing outside Azizyan’s home had cursed the former MP and his family and argued with Narek H., 25, Arturik N., 38, and Vardan A., who tried to get him to calm down, pushing the latter and causing injuries to his hand. Furthermore, Aharon attacked the officer who tried to settle the dispute, tearing off his tie and punching him in the chest and shoulder, according to a statement issued by the RA Police.

Not surprisingly, Aharon V. was detained by police and taken to the station.

Recall, in August, five masked men broke into Azizyan’s home, attacking him, his wife and daughter, and escaping with 3 million drams, $20,000 USD, gold jewelry and six expensive paintings.
