His move is simple revenge. Irina McCarthyan responded to the viral video The director of the Mikal Mirzoyan Music School, Irina McCarthyan, responded to the video that was circulated online. "Dear citizens, first of all I want to sincerely apologize to the students of the music school and their parents for this unpleasant story concerning my personal life and the situation that has arisen.
The video that was published was taken about 8-9 years ago, during the marriage, on the phone of my ex-husband Ashot Sembalovich from Karachian. We divorced in January 2024, after which a difficult period of continuous persecution, psychological and physical violence and blackmail began against me. He threatened to publish this video, and demanded that I give up my share of the jointly purchased property. The publication of the video and the comments given to him were only intended to scare me, discredit me and gain an advantage in legal disputes. I did not give in to the threats, and because of that the court obliged my ex-husband to pay the compensation I deserve. This step of his is simple revenge and a continuation of the promised blackmail.
For a long time I remained silent and did not contact the law enforcement authorities, thinking only about the future and the peace of mind of our common children. However, in this situation I can no longer remain silent: a statement will be submitted to the law enforcement authorities about all past and present events, along with the relevant evidence. I request and call on all citizens and the media to refrain from distributing or republishing this video. It concerns my personal life and the difficult family history, and I leave the continuation of its distribution to everyone's conscience and human attitude."
