Tser Sargsy has been summoned for questioning: Lawyer

Tser Sargsy, who was supposed to perform a liturgy at Hovhannavank this Sunday, has been summoned for questioning. This was reported by lawyer Ara Zohrabyan.

“The police were supposed to arrive at Hovhannavank at 16:00 today to prevent the invasion. The police present in the area refused to take action to prevent the intrusion, claiming they had not received such a request from the police department. Thus, the police are demonstrating legal inaction. Stepan Asatryan, ignoring the demands of the Mother See, continues to carry out priestly duties. There were numerous undercover police officers (in civilian clothing) present in the area,” he said.
