Security Service (NSS) has finished the inquest into the high treason
case. The prosecutor exercising control over the legitimacy of
procedures confirmed the bill of particulars.
According to inquest data, Armenian citizen G. Hayrapetyan, former
employee of RA Ministry of Defense, was recruited by Azerbaijan’s
intelligence services in April 2009. He transferred to them
confidential documents on the fighting efficiency of Armenian army,
as well as materials for conducting an anti-Armenian propaganda.

transportation or carrying of weapons). Iranian citizen B. Beger
