Prisoner at the "Prisoners’ hospital" penitentiary Samvel A. asked
prisoner of the same penitentiary Norik A. to transfer wrapped
drugs to a residential area from the penitentiary’s security zone,
as informed by the Penitentiary Department of the RA Justice Ministry.

The wrapped drugs were thrown towards the security zone from the yard
of the apartment buildings located near the penitentiary. Norik A. hid
the drugs and tried to transfer them to the residential area. But as
he was passing the control point, he underwent an examination as a
result of which the drugs were found and confiscated.

After a forensic chemical examination it became clear that the pack
of drugs was "Apion" drugs, which contain the "Buprenorph" type of
active ingredient. Investigation is still underway.

The RA Justice Ministry’s penitentiary department reminds that it
always takes all measures aimed at revealing and preventing any
illegal action at the penitentiary.
