UNCLE VAHAN RELEASED
Vahan Aroyan (known as uncle Vano) has been released from the “Nubarashen” Penitentiary Institution quite unexpectedly. Arsen Babayan, press secretary of the Criminal-Investigative Department of the RoA Justice Ministry confirmed the information. According to press-service of the Armenian National Security Service, “as result of a search conducted on December 29 in the house of Vahan Aroyan, resident of the village Lusarat, Ararat region, a cache with a lot of weapons and ammunition has been discovered. The search has been conducted as part of the criminal investigation initiated with regard to Zhirair Sefilian and Vardan Malkhassian, leaders of the organization "Unity of Armenian Volunteers". Aroyan has been arrested.”
It is due to mention that Aroyan has never been affiliated with the organization.
The Committee supporting Zhirair Sefilian and Vardan Malkhassian issued a statement today which runs, “Aroyan was arrested in late 2006 in order to ascribe his collection of weapons famous among law-enforcers to the organisation led by Zhirair Sefilian. The latter, according to a well-planned scenario, was going to be accused of plotting a coup d’etat.
The National Security Service held a special operation in order to somehow involve Vahan Aroyan in Zhirair Sefilian's case. The NSS put up an information leakage about an imminent arrest of Zhirair Sefilian, the addressee of which was Vahan Aroyan. They were sure that Zhirair’s companion-in-arms would tell him the news, which would enable them to arrest Vahan Aroyan and “discover an arsenal in his house within the realms of Sefilian's case.”
However, the hopes of the tchekists dashed away. They were unable to make Vahan Aroyan testify against Zhirair Sefilian, that is why the soldier who got innumerable injuries and awards during the war, the voluntary border-guard, got a disproportionate sentence, and served over 1.5 years in prison.
