‘He is the Main Killer’: Mother of Deceased Lieutenant Will Not Meet with General Prosecutor

At the end of the cabinet meeting today, RA General Prosecutor Gevorg Kostanyan approached the mothers of soldiers who died in non-combat conditions who regularly protest outside the government building and agreed to meet with them. He said he is familiar with each of their cases and is taking appropriate action for their disclosure.

"I have never refused to meet with you and now too I am prepared to do so, but so that our discussion is effective, come with your attorney or another legal rights defender," he said. 

Hasmik Hovhannisyan (pictured), mother of the late Lieutenant Artak Nazaryan, considers speaking with the prosecutor meaningless, as she is sure Kostanyan is interested in not revealing but concealing the crimes. 

In conversation with Epress.am, Hovhannisyan said if Kostanyan had the slightest wish to uncover the case, he would read at least one page from Artak Nazaryan's murder case. 

"I've only been to see him 1.5 times: the first time I went with an attorney, but that meeting did not get anywhere; the next time, he didn't even want to listen, took his mobile phone and went out, talking. What can he say now? Of course nothing, so I won't go to the meeting, as he has nothing to say and I have nothing to hear. 

"I consider him the main culprit; he is the main killer because he protects killers. I consider that my son's blood is on not only the murderer, but also the witnesses, eyewitnesses, those who conceal, the President and Prosecutor General of Armenia. Let them not respond here: they will be held to account before God for what they did," she said.
