Two Armenian Priests Indicted After Arrests
Law-enforcement authorities have pressed criminal charges against two of at least 13 priests detained in a criminal investigation linked to Prime Minister Nikol Pashinian’s efforts to depose the supreme head of the Armenian Apostolic Church, Catholicos Garegin II.
A Yerevan court has allowed the detention of Bishop Mkrtich Proshian and a local parish priest. The other clerics were released without charge.
- The Investigative Committee claims Proshian forced subordinates to attend opposition rallies and interfered with their electoral rights.
- Proshian denies the accusations, with his lawyer, Ara Zohrabian, stating that investigators failed to provide evidence of alleged coercion.
He denies the accusations.
