A report by the Iravkunk daily of Armenia, carried by news.am, says that sources close to the Civil Contract party, Armenia’s ruling party and its parliamentary faction, expect new disclosures about Armenian Apostolic Church clergy by the end of the year.
The report quotes “the authorities” as saying that a dossier provided by Saroyan, the defrocked primate of the Diocese of Masis, is “astounding.” The source identifies him as Bishop Gevorg Saroyan, now named Arman Saroyan. The report does not describe what the dossier contains, and it does not say which clergy the expected disclosures would concern.
The claims come through unnamed sources and the characterizations of officials, and the report does not include a response from the Armenian Apostolic Church. Matters of this seriousness call for careful and truthful handling until they are substantiated (Ephesians 4:15).
