As a result of extensive investigative and procedural actions carried out within the framework of the initiated criminal proceedings, as well as operational and investigative measures taken by the officers of the RA Ministry of Internal Affairs, it was established that the incident was not a sudden death, but rather a murder.
In particular, it was found that during a dispute over financial matters in building 4 on Sisakyan Street in Yerevan, a man inflicted blows that resulted in the victim's death, and then called for an ambulance, claiming that the victim had fainted.
According to the preliminary diagnosis provided by the forensic expert, the victim's death was caused by shock resulting from closed, blunt injuries to the head, neck, and chest.
Based on the obtained factual data, the investigator submitted a motion to the supervising prosecutor to initiate public criminal prosecution against the person suspected of committing the crime under part 1 of Article 155 of the Criminal Code, which was granted.
As a measure of restraint, detention has been applied against him.
Notice: The person accused of the crime is considered innocent until proven guilty in accordance with the procedure established by the Criminal Procedure Code by a legally binding court decision.
