The chairman of New Times Party, Aram Karapetyan, decided to call a
press conference today and tell about his verdicts on A320 airliner
crash unveiling his secret sources about the incident. Karapetyan had
several questions which remained without answers and he is going to
forward them to the general prosecutor’s office tomorrow.
Karapetyan has these and similar questions: were there any attempts by
criminal elements to force the landing of the airliner; were there any
beatings on this ground and was the commander of the airliner beaten;
were there gold, diamond, money in big quantities on the airliner;
why the airliner did not return to Yerevan after being warned by the
air conductor; have VIP passengers been checked by security services;
did they have any arms and explosives; if yes, has any criminal case
been instituted; has any Russian-Armenian group established between
the prosecutor’s services of the two countries.
Finally, the speaker wants to know if the Russian media reports have
any real grounds which say that the reality was different but it was
not unveiled because of political reasons.
Karapetyan thinks it doubtful that another A-320 was fired several
days after Sochi incident. The party leader believes all technical
documents of Sochi A-320 were in this airplane. Karapetyan’s sources
say that this airliner has been delivering gold and drugs once in
three months. However, Karapetyan failed to name the sources saying
there are no proofs.
Karapetyan is sure the airliner pilots were not guilty in the
incident. He said they will continue investigation and come up with
their conclusions.
Tomorrow the anti-criminal movement will launch discussions on A-320
crash. Karapetyan blames the authorities for their inconsistency
in finding out the details. As reporters we must mention that Aram
Karapetyan had difficulty while speaking about the subject. No,
he was not troubled. It is really difficult to speak when you have
a chewing gum in your mouth.
