"We Support Vardan Petrosyan" group has been created on Facebook. The
group has received over 4,000 Likes within a day.
To recall, earlier this week Facebook users were asked to come out
against the decision to detain the well-known Armenian actor Vardan
Petrosyan in relation to the criminal case on the Oct 20 road
accident.
Fine art expert Levon Mutafyan and actress Karine Janjughazyan
expressed their condolences to the accident victims' relatives. "No
one, especially the man of art, would like to be the reason of such a
tragedy", they said. They also added that the pretrial investigation
authority had not yet filed any charges against Vardan Petrosyan, but
a decision had already been taken to detain him. They thought that the
law enforcers were trying to humiliate him in that way. Mutafyan and
Janjughazyan asked the citizens to urge the law-enforcers not to
choose detention as a measure of restraint against Petrosyan. "He is
psychologically depressed and his health has deteriorated", they said.
To recall, on October 20 a BMW crashed into a VAZ 2121 on the
Yerevan-Yeghvard highway. 7 people were taken to hospital. Two of them
died in hospital. Vardan Petrosyan was among the injured. He underwent
surgery and was discharged from hospital on November 3.
The police have instituted a criminal case under Article 242 Part 3 of
the Armenian Criminal Code (traffic offence leading to vehicular
homicide), which envisages 4-10 years in prison. A decision has been
taken to detain Vardan Petrosyan.
