We will file an appeal against Davit Minasyan’s arrest. Vardevanyan

“Together with our colleagues, we will file an appeal today, and today we will also submit an urgent application to the Prosecutor General, because David’s health problems are obvious,” Vardevanyan informed.

“It is clear from the video that the situation of physical intervention was started by the initiative of the PSS officer. In other words, by 18-year-old Davit Minasyan, who has health problems, about which even his mother spoke today, any action is not carried out by David himself, it is carried out against him from the beginning,” said Vardevaryan.

Calling Davit Minasyan’s arrest illegal, Vardevanyan announced. “There is no dispute that there are health problems, but detention is chosen all the same.”

18-year-old Davit Minasyan, who was arrested on Sunday in connection with the St. Anna church incident, was detained for two months today. The court granted the petition of the investigator.

The lawyers reported that Davit has an illness incompatible with detention, an undisclosed allergy. The boy’s mother addressed the court with an open letter before the court session. Gayane Minasyan asked to give her son the opportunity to wait for court hearings in freedom, stressing that her son needs round-the-clock special care since he was 4 years old.

Yesterday, the investigator charged the three arrested after the incident with the prime minister in St. Anna. 18-year-old Davit Minasyan is accused of hooliganism and violence against an official in order to obstruct his political activities, his brother Mikael is accused of supporting him, and public figure Gevorg Gevorgyan of organizing all this. If convicted, they face 2-5 years in prison.

Footage from Sunday showed the prime minister’s security guards clearing a path to the exit of the packed church as one of the brothers protested being removed from his seat before reaching out his hand in the prime minister’s direction. The footage also shows how David falls down after being hit by a security guard and then gets up.
