In the anti-corruption court, today, April 15, the prosecutor petitioned to extend the house arrest of “Strong Armenia” party leader Samvel Karapetyan for another 3 months.
There are persons on whom Karapetyan can influence, prosecutor Argam Dallakyan said.
Aram Vardevanyan, one of Karapetyan’s defenders, stated that yesterday they filed a petition to change the restraining order against Samvel Karapetyan. In the near future is the congress of the party, which should approve the first 30 names of the electoral list and their order.
Samvel Karapetyan himself described the accusation as “absurd”, saying “but I do not object to the prosecutor”.
