In his recent meeting with sport federations in Armenia, head
of the Armenian Olympic Committee Gagik Tsarukian announced
that Samvel Alexanian is no longer head of the Armenian Wrestling
Federation. Tsarukian also informed that the boxing federation will no
longer be headed by former police chief-turned head of the president’s
bodyguard service Hayk Harutunian.

There is no information as to who will head the federations, yet it is
not excluded that Samvel Alexanian and Hayk Harutyunian will continue
to occupy their posts. The staff at the Armenian Boxing Federation
told "A1+" that Hayk Harutyunian will continue to work in his post
and that the federation is pleased with his work.

As far as the wrestling federation is concerned, uncertainty
remains. General Secretary of the federation Lyova Vardanian noted
that the federation will hold a meeting soon to discuss the issue
concerning the president of the federation. But Vardanian underlined
that they are pleased with the work of Samvel Alexanian.

"Alexanian has always supported us. If we have a new president, he
will have to be able to support us as much as Samvel Alexanian did,"
said Vardanian.
