There is a question of the presumption of innocence, I cannot give any assessment to the work of the legal system, said Emma Palyan, MP from the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia, in a conversation with journalists, referring to the detentions related to the Ministry of Economy.
He also added that he has known Alen Simonyan and his family members for a long time, they are very close to him.
“I can’t imagine that those people could end up in such a situation. When we came to power, we said that everyone is equal before the law. Nothing has changed. If I do something wrong. we are all equal before the law,” he said.
To the observation that the deputies want to collect signatures and present a letter of recommendation in order to release the detained persons: Palyan answered. “As a female deputy, I have such a desire, but there is no faction’s decision yet. Alen Simonyan is very loved and respected within the “Civil Contract” party. I have been a member of the CP party since 2016 and I can confidently say that Alen Simonyan is a person who is both loved and respected within our party. Mr. Simonyan fulfills and fulfills his duties, and I am one of those people who will always be by his side.”։
