A Yerevan state prosecutor has dropped all charges against Artak Gevorgyan who “piloted” a green cardboard tank through the streets of Yerevan last December.

Gevorgyan, a member of the Counter Punch art group had caused somewhat of a panic among Yerevan law enforcement with his foot-powered tank which he drove to various government buildings.

He was detained and taken in for questioning on December 11, 2015, when he drove the tank to the National Security Service (NSS) building.

The prosecutor charged Artak with “creating an atmosphere of property damage fear within the NSS staff.”

It seems that the prosecutor finally understood how utterly absurd the charge sounded.
