The Altercation Due to Insults Was Simply Domestic: Arsen Babayan on the Murder in Aparan

The police have not denied anything. The altercation stemming from insults was purely domestic and does not have any political implications or context. This was reported by Arsen Babayan, a member of the ‘Homeland’ party, on his Facebook page.

“By ‘denying,’ they confirmed it. The police hurried to respond to the murder committed by the relatives of the ruling party members in Aparan. Do you see the quality of this government? Meanwhile, the Azerbaijani Deputy Foreign Minister announced a month ago that Nikol and Aliyev had agreed to hand over 8 Armenian villages to Azerbaijan, but there has been no official denial until now. In this case, they tried to deny it at 12:30 AM. In reality, the police have not denied anything. The argument due to insults was purely domestic and carries no political meaning or context. It would have been political if during a dispute over a well-known political issue in the National Assembly, Edmond Marukyan had shot Alen Simonian when he called him a son of an immoral person,” he wrote.

Previously, it was reported that gunshots and a murder occurred in the Aragatsotn region. At around 20:30, the Aparan Medical Center reported to the police that 7 citizens had been transported to them with varying degrees of injuries, including gunshot wounds, one of whom has died.
