Lawyer Manvel Grigoryan claims that his property is legally acquired

Lawyer Manvel Grigoryan claims that his property is legally acquired

ArmInfo. The court against  the former MP, former chairman of the Union of Volunteers "Yerkrapah"  Manvel Grigoryan, extending his arrest, acts in accordance with the  instructions of the Special Investigation Service. Lawyer Levon  Baghdasaryan in an interview stated this with journalists.

According to him, although Grigoryan is accused of appropriating 7  million drams, this money was transferred to the General Prosecutor's  Office's deposit account in September. The lawyer said that the  companies owned by Manvel Grigoryan and his relatives are being  checked. "Leave aside the validity of checks. On the question of what  size the alleged violations may be, the investigative body responds -  a maximum of 1 billion drams. We give the state property worth 5  times more. We ask on what grounds a person is arrested, because  there is no reason. There is no answer, "the lawyer said, assuring  that all Grigorian's property had been acquired legally, which is  also evidenced by the case materials. "If the investigation had found  that the property had been acquired illegally, a corresponding  criminal case would have been initiated, but it would not have been.  And the investigation, I assure you, carefully checked all the  materials and documents, "the lawyer emphasized.

The lawyer said that such selective justice in the first place harms  the image of the state. According to him, Grigorian's "illegal  detention" under arrest is nothing more than torture. "Such illegal  actions, when a lawyer declares about them, and the authorities keep  stone silence, allow to conclude that a political decision has been  made regarding Manvel Grigoryan to hold him as a hostage and slowly  kill him," the lawyer said, recalling that the ombudsman also  responded.

According to him, if Grigoryan really committed a crime, he should  answer to the fullest extent of the law, however, there are no  grounds for arrest, and possible damage has been restored. The lawyer  referred to the recent statement by the head of the National Security  Service Arthur Vanetsyan that in case of restoration of damage a  person can remain free. "We do not demand the release of Manvel  Grigoryan from responsibility. We say that there are no grounds for  his arrest. If the guilt is proven in the future, then let him be  brought to justice, "said Levon Baghdasaryan.

At the same time, he stressed that if the protection of Grigoryan is  not successful in the republican courts, she will appeal to the  European Court of Human Rights. "Although Manvel Grigoryan is  categorically against it, he says that he does not want to sue his  own state, but I think that we must persuade him," he said.

To note, Manvel Grigoryan is accused of illegal possession of weapons  and ammunition, as well as of stealing property of another.
