ArmInfo.I think that one should not politicize the incident that occurred in Karaganda. Such fights, according to statistics, occur in large cities of Kazakhstan quite often. The executive director of the public organization "Against Right-Willing Abuse", ex-Ombudsman of Armenia Larisa Alaverdyan stated this on January 10 at a press conference. She stated that in this case this incident received a special resonance in Armenia, since the Armenians also participated in this fight.
"Not only Armenians participated in the fight, but representatives of five or six nationalities. However, I once again want to emphasize that we should not politicize the incident. I saw similar attempts in some media," Alavedian said.She noted that the representatives of the authorities and media of Azerbaijan are ready to use any incident in order to darken Armenia's relations with friendly countries. "This case became a kind of reason for attempts to intensify anti-Armenian sentiments. However, Astana made it clear by its statements that it did not want to create the ground for interethnic conflicts," the former ombudsman stressed, noting that in some publications Armenians.
As for the extradition of the citizen of the Republic of Armenia Narek Guryan, Alaverdyan noted that the extradition always has a political connotation. She noted that Russia could not extradite Guryan, since, according to the current legislative norm, in Kazakhstan he may be persecuted on a national basis. However, at this moment the political relations of Russia and Kazakhstan are at a very high level and it is unlikely that Moscow will decide to spoil them.The head of the NGO also noted that, according to international norms, Kazakhstan is not obliged to transfer Guryan to Armenia, however, during the negotiations the parties can make such a decision. In addition, Alaverdyan noted that after the sentencing, Yerevan will have the opportunity to appeal to the authorities of Kazakhstan and get the transfer of Guryan to Armenia so that he continues to serve his sentence in his homeland.In conclusion, the human rights activist stressed that since there are no aggravating circumstances in the case of Narek Guryan, he will not be sentenced to imprisonment for more than 12 years. Alaverdyan also noted that however, the Armenian lawyers, as well as the Armenian ambassador to Kazakhstan, will be able to see Guryan.
And Armenian human rights activists will also be able to defend the interests of the Armenian citizen in court proceedings.Note that on the night of January 1 in the restaurant "Ancient Rome" in the city of Karaganda there was a fight. 23-year-old resident of the city was killed in the incident, three more were injured. The deadly brawl in Kazakhstan has become a fertile ground for inciting ethnic hatred and the spread of misinformation. Three Armenians were involved in it. Armenian citizen Narek Gururian, suspected of committing hooliganism and murder in Karaganda on the night of January 1, was detained on January 9.
