Armenian and Russian law-enforcement bodies are continuing their joint efforts to solve last January’s deadly shooting spree in Gyumri blamed on a Russian army soldier, Prosecutor-General Gevorg Kostanian said on Wednesday.
Kostanian did not clarify, however, whether Valery Permyakov, the arrested soldier accused of murdering the seven members of a local Armenian family, will be handed over to the Armenian authorities.
“I can understand those people who took to the streets [of Gyumri] and rightly demanded that the case be transferred to Armenian jurisdiction,” he said in a speech in the National Assembly.
