A criminal case has been launched over the kidnapping and assault case involving Narek Sargsyan, wanted nephew of former President Serzh Sargsyan.

A citizen reported to the Police that he was kidnapped last year in Yerevan and beaten because of his business plans. The man planned to open a nightclub.

Police say Narek Sargsyan’s bodyguard invited the man to a meeting in August of 2017. The victim was kidnapped from downtown Yerevan by several men and taken to the basement of Narek Sargsyan’s residence.

The man was beaten, threatened at gunpoint and tortured with a lighter. He was then relocated to another facility, and again beaten.

Only when assuring that he won’t undertake any business activities concerning nightclubs was the man released.

The investigation has been instructed to the National Security Service’s investigation department.

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
