    KARABAKH WAR VETERAN'S FRIEND PAWNED HIS HOUSE TO HELP THE VETERAN'S FAMILY

    03.31.2015 14:46 epress.am

    On Friday, March 27, representatives of the Compulsory Enforcement
    Service visited the home of Karabakh war veteran Volodya Avetisyan,
    who wassentenced to 6 years of imprisonment for fraud and attempted
    fraud, and informed his family members that they had to pay an amount
    of $2,000 within 3 days, writes Hraparak paper.

    In an attempt to help the family, Volodya Avetisyan's friends organized
    a fundraising initiative which has raised $200.

    "Very little money was collected, and because we had no time to wait,
    one of our mutual friends pawned his house, and we payed the money
    to the state," Avetisyan's friend, Gagik Sarukhanyan, said.

    The fundraiser is continuing because the Avetisyan family intends on
    returning the money loaned from Avetisyan's friend.

    The following are accounts opened in Ameria Bank:

    1570018296030200 - AMD 1570018571170101 - US dollar

    The bank accounts are under Volodya Avetisyan's wife name, Margarita
    Baghramyan.

    Recall, that according to the indictment, Avetisyan received $2,000
    from Henrikh Zakaryan to exempt his grandson from compulsory military
    service and attempted to receive $500 from Albert Matosyan to transfer
    his son to another military unit.

    During the entire investigation, Avetisyan did not admit to the
    charges; moreover, he repeatedly said the charges against him are
    a result of political persecution, as he was one of the organizers
    of protests by war veterans demanding better treatment and improved
    social conditions. In one court session, Avetisyan said that after
    one of the protests to improve the social conditions of war veterans
    he was warned that he will be framed.

    In parliament on March 12, Armenian National Congress MP Nikol
    Pashinyan said that Avetisyan's arrest was politically motivated.

    In response to Pashinyan's statement, Seyran Ohanyan said that he met
    with Volodya Avetisyan and came to an arrangement that Ohanyan would
    discuss the matter with the "country's leadership", but Avetisyan
    violated the arrangement and did not wait for the result of the
    discussions and continued organizing the protests. Ohanyan claimed
    that Avetisyan's arrest was not politically motivated.
