Another Armenian Opposition Mayor Sent To Jail
The opposition mayor of Masis, Davit Hambardzumian, was arrested on Tuesday to serve a six-year prison sentence.
Hambardzumian was found guilty of assaulting participants of massive antigovernment rallies in 2018, which brought Prime Minister Nikol Pashinian to power. He denied the accusation throughout his six-year trial.
His lawyer said that he will appeal against the verdict. A video posted online showed police officers arresting Hambardzumian at Yerevan’s Zvartnots airport, where dozens of his supporters gathered.
He pledged to return to Armenia and continue challenging Pashinian’s government together with his HHK allies.
