YEREVAN. – The name of Armenian National Assembly Speaker Hovik
Abrahamyan is mentioned in connection with a criminal case that has
opened, Hraparak daily reports.

“Abrahamyan was to travel to Ukraine on Thursday on an official visit,
with a representational and large delegation.

“He was to meet not solely with his colleague, Ukraine’s [Supreme]
Rada [parliament] leader Volodymyr Lytvyn, but with the country’s
President Viktor Yanukovych.

“The visit was to last three to four days, and Abrahamyan had hired a
special plane to head to Kyiv. But it seems the angry ‘tops’ [because
of the aforesaid criminal case] said: ‘Stop! There is no going!'”
