The military division of Armenia’s Investigative Committee reports that it has launched a criminal case into the May 25 murder of army sergeant Hakob Gevorgyan and that a suspect has been arrested.

Gevorgyan died while being taken to the Meghri Medical Center from the army base where he was serving. He had suffered a wound to his chest.

The Investigative Committee reports that on the day of the incident, Gevorgyan had an argument with another contract soldier at the base that led to a fight during which Gevorgyan was stabbed with a sharp instrument.
