Authorities degenerate, taking revenge on PAP leader with animals -  Mother Armenia 

ArmInfo.  The Yerevan Criminal Court of Primary Instance is considering the prosecutor's office's  motion to arrest businessman Gagik Tsarukyan, leader of the  Prosperous Armenia Party.

In a conversation with journalists outside the courthouse, Mother  Armenia Party member Aregnaz Manukyan noted that all opposition  forces should have been present, as political prisoners cannot be  divided into "friends" and "foes." She emphasized that what is  happening is devoid of substance and is merely an order issued by RA  Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, who is taking revenge on Tsarukyan.

According to Manukyan, the authorities have degenerated so much that  they are even trying to take revenge on Tsarukyan with the help of  animals. She emphasized that the case is being heard by the judge who  ordered the arrest of Mother Armenia party leader Andranik Tevanyan  under an illegal order. Manukyan also appealed to opposition forces  for support, calling on them to raise their voices in defense of  Gagik Tsarukyan.

As a reminder, on July 6, Prosperous Armenia party leader and  businessman Gagik Tsarukyan was detained and taken to the  Investigative Committee of Armenia. He is accused of organizing fraud  and money laundering on an especially large scale. According to  investigators, between 2022 and 2024, a group operating under his  leadership, under the pretext of developing trade and economic ties  between Armenia and Iran, created joint legal entities with the  participation of Iranian citizens, after which they carried out a  fraudulent scheme, causing damages totaling over $21 million.  Furthermore, Gagik Tsarukyan has been charged with another offense:  illegal hunting.
