Heritage Party has circulated in the Parliament a draft statement on the re- appointment of Suren Khachatryan as Governor of Syunik region.
The authors of the statement believe that a bandit like Khachatryan must not be appointed into a government office.
"Khachatryan's re-appointment is the result of a secret criminal plot by the group patronized by the illegal regime of Serzh Sargsyan. We are puzzled to see that the police have done nothing to make Khachatryan and his relatives responsible for the numerous crimes they have committed," the statement says.
Khachatryan was dismissed in 2013 after businessman Avetik Budaghyan was killed near his house in Goris. Khachatryan's son and bodyguard were privy to the crime but evaded prosecution.
Khachatryan was re-appointed as Governor of Syunik region a few days ago even though he and some of his relatives are rumored to have committed lots of crimes, like rapes, kidnappings and beatings.
