SIS head describes leak of conversation attempt to impede March 1 revelations
Head of the Special Investigation Service Sasun Khachatryan said he briefed to the Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan on the criminal cases filed over March 1 events.
“I have briefed to him, I have briefed to him on Khachaturov’s case as well,” he said at a news conference called after the leak of of his conversation with NSS head Arthur Vanetsyan.
“As far as high-ranking officials are involved in the case they will manage to impede the investigation and I believe imprisonment is more effective,” Khachatryan said, adding that publicizing this recording is another attempt to impede the investigation of March 1 case.
“This is a crime aimed at suspending our activity. We are trying to enroot corruption and bring back the billions robbed from our people,” he said.
