YEREVAN, JULY 6, NOYAN TAPAN. The conclusion concerning the
absence of posthumous injuries, as well as the origin of
injuries inflicted on the body of Levon Gulian, does not affirm
the official version of the police in any way. This statement
was made at the July 4 press conference by Hrair Ghukasian, the
representative of the legal successor of Levon Gulian, who died
in the building of the Criminal Investigation of the Police
under unknown circumstances.
It should be mentioned that, according to the version of
the police, Levon Gulian tried to escape by jumping from the
window, fell down and died as a result of the fall, that is to
say, it was an accident. However, Hrair Ghukasian did not
exclude the possibility of murder or suicide.
The lawyer mentioned that, according to the conclusion of
the forensic examination of the body of Levon Gulian, which was
conducted by foreign experts, the bruise and scratch under the
left eye, as well as a number of bruises and scratches on the
hands and feet of the aggrieved could be a result of the
influence of another force, which preceded the fall: for
example, it could be punches or blows with other subjects.
According to the finger-print investigation, only three of
the finger-prints taken from inside and outside of the window
(from where, according to the police, Levon Gulian jumped)
belonged to L. Gulian. As for the other finger-prints discovered
on that window, they belong to a person, who has not been
revealed by the investigation as yet. The finger-prints of Levon
Gulian were not found on the two tubes either: according to the
version of the police, Levon Gulian tried to jump down by taking
hold of a tube, but beating against this tube he fell to the
ground. According to the conclusion of the complex fibre and
forensic-chemical investigation, micro-particles of soot,
concrete, and plaster, as well as traces of yellow paint and
rust (one of the above-mentioned tubes was painted yellow, the
other one was not painted, it was rusty) were not found in the
contents under the finger nails of the hands and clothes of
Levon Gulian.
The aggrieved party expects that the preliminary
investigation body will answer the question of whose activities
or inactions gave rise to the fact that Levon Gulian was limited
in freedom and submitted to violence, as well as under what
circumstances he died. "It is a fact that a number of illegal
measures were taken against Levon Gulian from May 10 to 12:
limitation of freedom, violence, as well as many others, and he
was brought to the RA Police station without any legal bases and
died under very strange circumstances," the representative of
the legal successor of the aggrieved party said.
