Vahagn Vermishyan Files Request to Transfer to Hospital, But Process is Not Ensured

Former president of the State Committee for Urban Development Vahagn Vermishyan has filed a request to be transferred to a hospital. This information was shared by his lawyer Aleksandr Kochubaev on his Facebook page.

“I just spoke with Vahagn Vermishyan and learned that he has submitted a request to be transferred to a hospital from the correctional facility, but the process of the request is not being ensured. Everything is being done to conceal the deterioration in his health condition,” he wrote.

Kochubaev has urged the Ministry of Justice to facilitate Vermishyan's transfer to the hospital “instead of publishing pointless texts.” “Measuring pressure does not allow for diagnosing brain issues,” he added.

It is noteworthy that the Ministry of Justice announced yesterday that Vahagn Vermishyan had refused medical assistance at the “Nubarashen” Correctional Facility, and a record was drawn up regarding this.
