To recall, recently a recording of a telephone conversation between  the Director of the National Security Service of Armenia Artur  Vanetsyan and the head of the SIS, Sasun Khachatryan was spread in  the network. During the 8-minute conversation they are discussing the  arrest of former Armenian President Robert Kocharyan, as well as the  criminal cases brought against the CSTO Secretary General Yuri  Khachaturov and former Defense Minister Mikael Harutyunyan. To recall  all of them  are accused of overthrowing the constitutional system  during the post-election events of 2008, which resulted in the death  of 10 people.

To note,  in the record of the conversation between the head of the   National Security Service Artur Vanetsyan and the head of the Special   Investigative Service Sasun Khachatryan, the parties are discussing   the arrest of the second president of Armenia Robert Kocharyan, as   well as the danger of incarcerating the CSTO Secretary General Yuri   Khachaturov, as "Russia was hardly soothed".  Vanetsyan gives   Khachatryan legal advice on what measure of restraint can be taken   against Khachaturov instead of arrest. They also talk about former  defense minister Mikhael Harutyunyan, lawyer Vahe Grigoryan, a friend   of former defense minister Seyran Ohanyan and others. At the   beginning of the conversation, Khachatryan tells Vanetsyan what   Robert Kocharyan said when he saw the secret order by Mikael   Harutyunyan, which was the reason for launching criminal prosecution   against them (according to this order, allegedly, the army was   involved in the events of March 1, 2008, ed. note). Khachatryan  states that Kocharyan's lawyer, Ruben Sahakyan stated that this is  political persecution, he asked the data of all the investigators   participating in the case. "In general, he is engaged in stupid  things," Sasun Khachatryan said. In response to Vanetsyan's question  about how Kocharyan reacted to the order, Khachatryan states: "He was  furious." Vanetsyan further confesses:  "A judge called me who must   pass a sentence on the arrest, he was scared, said he should study   all the grounds before the verdict, I said you can study, but   Kocharyan should be arrested in any case''.
