It is already three years the residents of the village Masrik,
Gegharqouniq Marz, have been trying to get rid of the village head
Gagik Saroyan by various means of complaints. Gagik Saroyan, head
of the community, has been ruling the village for 18 years and was
reelected on June 25.
This has aroused new complaints among residents and as a result of
it they organized a rally opposite the Government premises. Sanasar
Ghulyan, the confidant of Susanna Barseghyan, candidate for the village
head, claims that Gagik Saroyan was elected with "gross frauds."
Most of his votes(194) "he collected from his native village Norakert
and on account of the dead." Whereas the other candidate who didn't
win the election got "191 votes" only from Masrik.
Besides election frauds, the strikers claim that Gagik Saroyan hasn't
done anything for the villagers since he officially took his office.
The village refugees complained most of all saying that the village
head "takes their lands and gives them to his acquaintances or
relatives living in Norakert as the head himself comes from that
village."
The residents of the village voice hope that Prime Minister Andranik
Margaryan will listen to their complaints and assist them. Otherwise
they will have to turn to foreign embassies and ask them for dwelling
places in other territories.
