RA Prime Minister Pashinyan was questioned as a witness by the RA Investigative Committee.

In response to Azatututyun's inquiry, the investigative body informs that the preliminary investigation of the criminal proceedings initiated by a group of high-ranking officials of Armenia during the 44-day war regarding the alleged crime of abusing their official powers continues from May 4, 2022. In the response, it is mentioned that Prime Minister Pashinyan was questioned as a witness within the framework of this proceeding.

The relatives of the victims, who had been holding various protest actions in front of the government building and the Prosecutor General's Office for months before, since April, demanded to interrogate Pashinyan. They urged to interrogate and impeach Prime Minister Pashinyan.

At that time, the former chief prosecutor Artur Davtyan met the relatives of the victims in front of the prosecutor's office building, after which, after studying the application of the relatives, he decided to include them as victims and instructed the head of the Investigative Committee, Argishti Kyaramyan, to interrogate Prime Minister Pashinyan.

The Investigative Committee does not elaborate on exactly when Pashinyan was interrogated, nor does it indicate whether this could be followed by the fulfillment of the other demand of the soldiers' relatives, to indict Pashinyan for war crimes.
