ArmInfo. I have repeatedly stated, and I repeat once again, I will not change my position on the case of the members of the Sasna Crer group. On February 28, the Head of the Police of Armenia Valery Osipyan said this in an interview with journalists.
Touching upon the threats voiced by one of the co-founders of the Sasna Tsrer party, Zhirayr Sefilyan, Osipyan warned that the police are fully in control of the situation and its impossible to catch unawares. "I want to note that we can at any time resist the violators of order. If anyone, regardless of his position in society, tries to encroach on our Constitutional order, we will take appropriate measures," the Armenian police chief emphasized.We note that recently the co-founder of the Sasna Tsrer party, Zhirayr Sefilyan, made a statement that two members of the party, Armen Bilyan and Smbat Barseghian, accused of the murder should be released. Sefilyan noted that the cup of his patience was overflowing, and if the authorities did not master the members of the group in the near future, then other methods would be used.It should be noted that Valery Osipyan in 2016 was one of the hostages of the members of the Sasna Center group.
Recall that in July 2016, armed representatives of the Sasna Tsrer group stormed the regiment of the patrol and inspection service of the Police in Yerevan. During the seizure of three days, three policemen died. After Nikol Pashinyan became the country's prime minister, many members of the group were released, but the trial of a number of criminal cases continues. Two members of the group Armen Bilyan and Smbat Barseghyan, who are accused of murder, are under arrest. The head of the Armenian police, Valery Osipyan, noted that he was against the amnesty for members of the rebel group.
