/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Armenian Foreign Ministry slammed some Turkish
media for circulating absurd information.

"I flatly refute the reports by some Turkish media that Varuzhan
Gardisian will be present at the qualifying soccer game between
Armenian and Turkish teams and will sit in the government box,"
head of RA MFA media relations division Tigran Balayan told a
PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.

Varuzhan Gardisian was convicted for blasting a Turkish jet at Paris
Orly Airport in 1983, killing 8 people. Acquitted and released in 2001,
he moved to Armenia for permanent residence.
