“The Location of Manakh is Known”: Nairi Hokhikyan

Interethnic conflict expert Nairi Hokhikyan has written on his Facebook page: “The location of Manakh is known, a court session is underway. Previously, I reported that on the night of June 20, Arthur Ayvazyan, the commander of the reconnaissance-diversion special unit known as Manakh, was detained and then arrested. His whereabouts were kept secret for some time. I just learned from Arthur's relatives that his location has been communicated to his lawyer, and at this moment, a court session is taking place at the Yerevan Central Court regarding the motion of the Investigative Committee of the Republic of Armenia concerning the application of detention as a preventive measure against Arthur.”
