Today, Hunan Poghosyan, who heads the Police department’s Organized
Crime Division, verified rumors that Areg Hayrapetyan, who used to run
the Ministry of Culture’s Legal Affairs and Audit Division had been
arrested two days ago.

Poghosyan refused to provide any details, arguing that his division
wasn’t authorized to do so. Rumor has it that a search of
Hayrapetyan’s house revealed a second passport in his name and blank
Ministry forms signed by the minister.
