Armenian opposition MPs file motion for release of fallen soldier's father
Armenian opposition MPs Artur Vanetsyan, Armenuhi Kyureghyan and Tigran Abrahamyan have filed a motion for the release of Garik Galeyan, the father of fallen soldier Mkhitar Galeyan, Vanetsyan said on social media.
Galeyan was arrested early on Wednesday morning for “breaking into a military unit, gravely insulting and hurting” an army officer. He was later taken to hospital due to deteriorating health.
The lawmakers visited the General Military Department of Armenia’s Investigation Committee to file the petition.
“Honor and glory to the parents of heroes! Eternal memory to our fallen brothers!” Vanetsyan wrote on Facebook.
