A Yerevan court today decided to keep Manvel Grigoryan, charged with illegal arms possession and embezzlement, in pre-trial detention.
Italian police arrested 102 suspects on Monday after a 12-year investigation into mafia families that allegedly rule Puglia region on Italy’s southeast coast and are responsible for large-scale drug trafficking from the Balkans.
Manvel Grigoryan was brought to Yerevan’s Nor Nork Administrative Court today just hours after Armenia’s parliament stripped the former army general of his immunity as a legislator, thus allowing him to be prosecuted on illegal arms possession and embezzlement charges.
Here’s a list of animals found at the Etchmiadzin home of MP Manvel Grigoryan on June 18 by staffers of the Foundation for the Preservation of Wildlife and Cultural Assets (FPWC) and the Wildlife Rescue Center (WRC) of Armenia, in conjunction with Yerevan Zoo employees.
The Artsakh Ministry of Defense reports that earlier today Azerbaijan downed one of its unmanned drones that was flying over the southeastern section of the Line of Contact.
Mirijanyan said that investigators will soon launch a series of probes into all aspects of the Etchmiadzin municipality’s activities.
By a vote of 77 to 3, Armenia’s National Assembly today approved a motion to prosecute MP Manvel Grigoryan and keep him in pre-trial detention on charges of illegal arms possession and embezzlement.
The Prosecutor General added that Grigoryan and his family members had started “cleaning” the areas of arms by transporting them to different places since June 5.
The Institute of Applied Problems of Physics (IAPP), a unit of Armenia’s National Academy of Sciences, faces a number of problems, but somehow manages to struggle on, staying true to its mission of innovation and discovery.
