Brutal Assault on Attorney Argishti Kiviryan

30_04-kiviryan1 At five in the night, Argishti Kiviryan, who runs the "Armenia Today" website, was brutally attacked at the entrance to his house at #9 Nalbandyan Street. Mr. Kiviryan was rushed to the Erebuni Medical Center. He is now in the intensive care unit. 30_04-a-kiviryan1 His wife, attorney Lusineh Sahakyan believes that the attack was a result of his professional work. It can't be ruled out however that the attack stems from the fact that Ms. Sahakyan is the defense attorney for former military prosecutor Gagik Jhangiryan. 30_04-mahak2 It appears that rubber truncheons were used in the beating and initial reports also indicate that shots were fired as well, but that Mr. Kiviryan didn't suffer any bullet wounds. 30_04-mahak1 Photo-journalist Gagik Shamshyan was on the scene of yesterday's attack and photographed the area. The attackers left a wooden club they used to beat Mr. Kiviryan during their flight. Hopefully this time around the police will be able to apprehend the attackers. They only have to thoroughly inspect the attack site and follow the clues left behind.
