, the oppositionist wrote.
Mamikon Aslanyan was arrested in December 2021. He is accused of exceeding official powers, forgery for personal reasons and committing a number of other socially dangerous crimes. In particular, he is charged with abuses in real estate transactions during his tenure as head of the community. Aslanyan himself and his supporters consider the criminal prosecution to be politically motivated. Last December, the politician won the local self-government elections in Vanadzor, but some time later he was arrested on the above-mentioned charges.
