Court stops prosecution of former Artsakh army commander

Charges against Lieutenant-General Jalal Harutyunyan, a former commander of the Artsakh Defense Army, have been dropped, Armenia’s Investigative Committee said.

A court in Yerevan stopped his prosecution following a military expertise, Investigative Committee spokesman Gor Abrahamyan told 168.am on Monday.

Harutyunyan was indicted on two counts of “careless attitude towards military service.”
