Lawyers representing the family of the late military doctor Vahe Avetian accused the Armenian police on Monday of deliberately botching a criminal investigation into his violent death at a Yerevan restaurant owned by a government-linked businessman.
One of the lawyers, Lusine Hakobian, said police investigators have glossed over important facts to clear the businessman, Ruben Hayrapetian, of any involvement in the June 17 assault on Avetian and his friends and colleagues.
Hakobian and another Avetian family attorney, Tigran Yegorian, have repeatedly demanded that Hayrapetian at least be treated as a suspect in the high-profile case. The police insist that they have no grounds to suspect six men arrested on assault charges of having acted on the tycoon's orders.
