YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 6, NOYAN TAPAN. At the RA NA February 4 sitting parliament Speaker Hovik Abrahamian presented his condolences to the relatives of Deputy Head of RA Police, Colonel Gevorg Mherian killed the day before. He said that the law enforcement bodies are obliged to immediately undertake all necessary measures to disclose the crime and to find the criminals. Though it was a day of question and answer with the government in NA, none of the deputies raised the issue regarding Deputy Police Head's murder and demanded commentaries from the government. Zharangutiun (Heritage) faction member, former RA Ombudsperson Larisa Alaverdian said in her interview to Noyan Tapan correspondent that the atmosphere of impunity in the country results not only in violation of people's ownership rights, which the faction has repeatedly stated, but also in graver crimes, among which is Deputy Police Head's murder. It should be mentioned that 34-year-old G. Mherian was killed in the evening of February 3 near his apartment's entrance from fire-arms injuries in his head.
