On Sunday, July 1, 39-year-old lieutenant-colonel Vardan Samvelyan reportedly entered the Harsnakar restaurant complex in Yerevan armed with 600 grams of TNT, hand grenades and a knife, threatening he would blow up the restaurant. Samvelyan did not carry out his threat, but instead surrendered to the police three hours later.
The man was arrested only a few hours after a candlelight vigil action near Harsnakar in memory of military doctor Vahe Avetyan, who died on June 29 of head injuries in hospital without regaining consciousness. Doctors had struggled for his life for more than ten days.
