"Those who are guilty must be punished", said Armen Ashotyan from
the Republican faction in connection with the arrest of Hakob
Hakobyan. "You should not look upon all this as a process in the
context of pre-election campaign" he added.

As for the incident with former Minister of Internal Affairs Suren
Abrahamyan, the deputy voiced confidence that "not a single member
of the Republican party has anything to do with it", and "the head
of the party must not be blamed for the act".

"It’s not favorable for the Republican party to meddle with suchlike
incidents. The Party is interested in revealing all the details
connected with the case.

I’ll tell you more: the organizers of the case have insulted our
party. They think that the people are so naive that they will believe
in downright deceit", he mentioned.
