YEREVAN, APRIL 17, ARMENPRESS. Serzh Sargsyan’s lawyers are denying media reports that a new criminal case has been filed against the former president.
In a statement, Sargsyan’s lawyers said he was questioned by the National Security Service as a witness. They didn’t specify the case.
Sargsyan was questioned last week within the framework “of a case which isn’t investigated on an apparent case of bribing”.
“We urge [the media] to refrain from circulating disinformation”, the statement said.
