As we have reported earlier, as a result of joint operations by Armenia’s National Security Service (NSS) and Police, an organized criminal group was exposed and arrested in Yerevan today. The group had a large quantity of weapons and ammunition stored in a Yerevan house where they uncovered and arrested. As soon as the reports about the arrest of the criminal gang spread, some in Armenia said the authorities are thus taking measures to ‘neutralize’ the December 1 rally of the New Armenia Public Salvation Front. “I do not exclude it. The regime is capable of taking such steps,” said Varuzhan Avetisyan, a member of the front, told A1+. At the same time, he did not exclude that this could be an ordinary criminal gang.
