VIDEO: Charges Filed Against Father and Uncle of Fallen Soldier Mkhitar Galeyans from 44-Day War

Charges have been filed against Garik Galeyan, the father of fallen soldier Mkhitar Galeyan, and his uncle, Arthur Galeyan. This was reported by lawyer Vahan Hovhannisyan on his Facebook page.

The Galeyans appeared at the investigative department of Yerevan based on a summons. The charges were announced in connection with an incident that occurred in front of the Prosecutor General's office on June 30, 2022.

“Over a year has passed without any investigative or procedural actions in that case, and none of the parents had been interrogated. Moreover, we ourselves went to the police station after the incident and provided explanations,” the lawyer noted.

He reminded that on that day, Garik and Arthur Galeyan, along with Vahid Sahakyan, the father of fallen soldier Zhora Sahakyan, suffered bodily injuries. However, today charges have been filed against Galeyan.

Recall that an incident occurred on June 30, 2022, between relatives of fallen soldiers and two citizens near the building of the Prosecutor General's office.

According to reports, one of the citizens was Roman Baghdasaryan, a supporter of Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan. The citizens attempted to provoke the parents of the fallen soldiers who had gathered near the prosecutor's office, leading to a confrontation. As a result, one individual was detained.
