Former Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan’s jailed brother Henrik Abrahamyan has been released from pre-trial detention on a five million dram (roughly 10,300 dollars) bail, the Special Investigative Service told ARMENPRESS.

Henrik Abrahamyan was arrested in suspicion of illegal possession of firearms and ammunition.

Authorities said the man stored the illegal weapons in the territory of a factory officially owned by a man named Ambik Gevorgyan, but de facto owned by Hovik Abrahamyan. Multiple firearms, including heavy machine guns and sniper rifles, were found in the premises of the plant.

Ambik Gevorgyan is the driver of Hovik Abrahamyan.

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
