    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ On February 23, at the Argavand crossroad near
    Yerevan, the police stopped two cars, namely VAZ21010 ¹ 80 UU 555
    and BMW X5 99SL 555, conveying armed people who aimed to destabilize
    Armenia, said a statement issued by the RA Police.

    The car was stopped for a check but the passengers showed
    resistance. As result, two law enforcers - Gevorg Malkhasyan and Tigran
    Karapetyan - were wounded. Vardan Jahangiryan, who put up resistance,
    was also injured.

    The law enforcers detained former deputy prosecutor general Gagik
    Jahangiryan, his brother Vardan Jahangiryan, his assistant Karen
    Hovhannisyan and driver Levon Poghosyan.

    As is turned out, Gagik Jahangiryan had a Czech pistol with 14
    cartridges in it. His brother was armed with PSM pistol with 8
    cartridges. A gun, a browning, a knife, handcuffs and a bullet-proof
    vest were found in the car.

    A criminal case was initiated

    By presidential decree, Gagik Jahangiryan was released from the post
    of deputy prosecutor general after he joined the opposition movement
    led by Levon Ter-Petrosyan.
