"Zhoghovurd" daily writes. According to "Zhoghovurd" daily newspaper, Hovhannes Sahakyan, who arrived in Armenia from Russia during the election days, has not been able to return to Russia for almost three months. According to our sources, Sahakyan's lawyer has filed a complaint with the Criminal Court of Appeals regarding the procedural restrictions applied to him and is waiting for the court's decision. At the same time, the criminal proceedings initiated in the pre-investigation body do not actually make any progress. Let's remember that on the day of the elections, in an interview with "Shant" TV station, Hovhannes Sahakyan said that they came from Moscow to participate in the voting and were going to return to Russia on the same day.
"We came from Moscow to vote, we will return at 7 in the evening," he said. In response to the journalist's question, "On the same day?", Sahakyan responded: "For sure, the situation can get complicated, we are with the child, let's not dwell on the complications." However, later, when he tried to leave for Moscow from "Zvartnots" airport, the law enforcement officers arrested him.
Earlier, in response to ArmLur.am's inquiry, the RA Investigative Committee reported that according to the received report on the apparent crime, H. According to preliminary data, S., being informed about the crime being prepared, did not report it to the competent authorities of the Republic of Armenia.

According to the investigator's decision, Hovhannes Sahakyan was arrested, then he was charged, and as a preventive measure he was banned from leaving the country. Today, almost three months after the incident, Hovhannes Sahakyan continues to stay in Armenia. According to "Zhoghovurd" daily newspaper, there is no significant progress in the criminal proceedings so far. It is not known what new circumstances have been discovered or what the pre-investigative bodies are continuing to find out. However, the fact remains. For three months, Sahakyan has not been able to return to his permanent place of residence, Russia, while the initiated criminal proceedings are still in the preliminary investigation stage.
