Authorities implemented the referendum
On April 12 around 00:30 o'clock, when peaceful demonstrates were enjoying
kind of unification, quite suddenly on Baghramyan Avenue the street
illumination went down. Then the rumors spread: "They are going to press
people with a tanks". Leaders of opposition declared, it is methods of
making people scare and there is no reason for panic. Suddenly water shooter
cars, which were parked on the next side of the barbed wire started to move
ahead opening the way for helmets. On Bagramyan Avenue street illumination
was put on back. Good trick... army and water shoot cars had to see their
enemy. Simultaneously to water shoot some type of unknown explosives were
thrown out (later we clarified they were splinters!).It was so unexpectedly,
people got in a flap, but kept their positions. On the same moment, some
fellows in civilian clothes, which were grouped around Chekhov school and US
Embassy (first they were among demonstrates) took off their clubs and
started to beat people violently.
At the same time, from the Parliament of Republic of Armenia central gate
red-berets went out, which joined the massacre from the other side. When
number of injured people became critical, not protected demonstrates started
to move back. Crossroad of Baghrayan Avenue and Moskovyan street was already
blocked. Another fully equipped army of helmets was waiting there for
already shocked citizens.
By now, number of demonstrates are taken to the hospital hardly injured.
Obviously lots of them did not apply, being frustrated. Unfortunately none
of Armenian TV channels were there at the moment, the only brave cameramen
was from Russian ORT... he was beaten and camera broken. In an hour, when
some of MPs from opposition were arrested and demonstrates finally repressed
satisfied order implementers were proud to report their chiefs about settled
"rule and order in the country"... Hereafter Mr. Kocharyan can keep up with
his preparation for the Charles Aznavour anniversary concert in Paris...
