"At night on December 9 15 masked people broke into one of the
restaurants in Yerevan where coordinator of the initiative ‘Protection
of Liberated areas’ Zhirayr Sefilyan was having dinner with his wife
and friends.
He was arrested as a most dangerous criminal. The masked policemen took
Sefilyan to the central office of the fund ‘Arax-Kur’ and carried out
a search confiscating computers and other things", announced member of
"Armenian Volunteers Union" Samvel Haroutyunyan during the discussion
organized by the anti-criminal movement in connection with the arrest
of Zhirayr Sefilyan.
During the same night the houses of 40 members of the union were
searched. The workers of the National Security Service manifested
unprecedented cynicism while searching the house of Vardan Malkhasyan,
the head of the Aragatsotn regional structure. They arrested Malkhasyan
at the presence of the two-year-old child and the sick wife.
"This remind us if the year 1937. The authorities do whatever
they want. Today the Alfa of the NSC can stop my car in the street
every moment and search it", said leader of "New Times" party Aram
Karapetyan.
