Trdat Khachatryan, the youngest son of former governor of Syunik Surik Khachatryan, was declared unfit for military service. This was reported by the Military Investigative Department of the Investigative Committee in response to a written inquiry by “Hetq”.


Trdat Khachatryan is charged under Article 327, Part 2, Clause 2 of the Criminal Code for forging a document or being released from military service by other means of deception.


Still last year, on August 10, Trdat Khachatryan a complex forensic medical, forensic psychiatric inpatient and military medical commission examination was appointed. We wondered if after a year the results of the examination are still not ready and whether it is possible to record on the basis of these data that Khachatryan was released from military service on the basis established by law.


“Trdat Khachatryan was declared unfit for military service according to the conclusion of the forensic medical, inpatient forensic psychological and military medical commission complex examination. As for the issue of Trdat Khachatryan’s legal release from military service, it is subject to evaluation during the final decision in the criminal case,” said the answer to the inquiry. The investigative committee also informed that the preliminary investigation in the case is ongoing.



Trdat Khachatryan wrote an open letter to Defense Minister Davit Tonoyan after appearing as an accused, explaining how he was declared unfit for mandatory military service during the winter draft of 2017.


In his letter, Khachatryan also wrote that he applied to various medical centers, after which an improvement in his health condition was noticed, and he also emphasized that he is ready to serve in the Armed Forces regardless of the results of the examination.


After receiving the status of the accused, a signature not to leave was chosen as a preventive measure.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
