A couple of days ago, Army Commander of Karabagh Seyran Ohanyan ordered to fire Army Commander of the N subdivision of Martakert Felix Baghdasaryan.. Lieutenant Samvel Yaghubyan will temporarily be assigned as army commander. According to our sources, the former commander was fired as a result of an emergency situation. On February 3 of this year, soldier Vartan Sahakyan from the Sisyan military subdivision was said to have fled the army with a “Kalashnik” gun and hasn’t returned since then. The Military Police and Prosecution have been assigned to start a search. Sources say that the first commander of the 2nd subdivision Aram Khlghatyan and Hrachya Zhamharyan, who was serving in the Malatia-Sebastin community of Yerevan, have been arrested for the crime.. Supposedly, Hrachya Zhamharyan and Aram Khlghatyan have information regarding Sahakyan’s disappearance due to the fact that Zhamharyan has asked Sahakyan to go and get some food for him from time to time. The search, which began on February 3, is still underway. On top of all this, Vartan Sahakyan is also accused of a crime. According to sources, Vartan’s father Martik Sahakyan has appealed to the Minister of Defense of the RA Serge Sargsyan, asking him to help find his son. Sources also say that it is quite possible that Vartan has found himself in Azerbaijani territory. Vartan Sahakyan’s father also wrote a letter to the “Red Cross” international organization three days ago. There are sources that say that Vartan Sahakyan was not a bad soldier and did not have conflicts with any of the other soldiers before his escape. He was going to end his military service in the spring.
