The 28 year old bodyguard of Narek Sargsyan, the nephew of former President Serzh Sargsyan, has voluntarily surrendered to authorities after arriving in Armenia on a Krasnodar-Yerevan flight on July 10 days after being declared wanted. The bodyguard, Artem Petrosyan, is charged with illegal possession of firearms and narcotics.

A court had approved a motion to remand Petrosyan into custody pending further proceedings.

Narek Sargsyan is still at large.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
