of law-enforcement bodies and leaders of Sevan Armenian community of
the city. As noted by I. Seleznyov, the investigation is under way
and law-enforcement bodies say they have a "hook" that will help to
find those guilty in acts of vandalism at the Armenian cemetery. In
his words, the city budget will compensate the material harm. It

Khosta region section of domestic affairs from residents of Verkhny
Yurt village populated by Armenians that a large number of graves is
demolished in the cemetery 5 km away from the settlement, reported
the Yerkramas newspaper of Armenians of Russia. In the course of
examination of the cemetery 29 demolished graves were discovered
most of them being Armenians'. The word "Schizophrenia" is written
on the headstones of each of the destroyed graves. The graves were
supposedly demolished with a sledgehammer or some other heavy object.
