Raffi Hovannisian considers the murder of Shahen Hovasapyan, the Head
of the Operative Investigation Department of the State Tax Agency,
natural.

"It reflects the morbid state of the authorities, the country and the
society. We can speak about national values and democracy, but this
kind of incidents will take place until everyone is equal for the law."

According to Mr. Hovannisian, Shahen Hovasapyan’s murder testifies
to the fact that this is the way problems are solved in Armenia.
