Naira Zohrabyan reported that  mayor of Goris is accused of  organizing the riots

ArmInfo. Mayor of Goris, Arush Arushanyan, was charged with organizing riots under Article 225 of the RA Criminal Code. Naira Zohrabyan, MP from the Prosperous Armenia party, told reporters about this.

Now Zohrabyan herself is near the building of the Investigative  Committee, where Arushanyan is.  Moreover, human rights defenders and  lawyers of Armenia also gathered near the building of the  Investigative Committee, who are going to provide assistance to the  mayor of Goris.

Zohrabyan stressed that perhaps Arushanyan will be detained for two  months. However, the MP hopes that the mayor of Goris will be  released.

It should be noted that today, at the call of Arushanyan, a number of  roads in Syunik were closed from early morning, the citizens did not  want to let the Armenian Prime Minister into Goris. Opposition  activists blocked the Yerevan-Goris highway, stating that until the  mayor was released, the highway would not be unblocked. A huge  traffic jam has formed on the highway in the morning. Hundreds of  people are virtually trapped in the cold.
