DEMANDING REPLY FROM GOVERNMENT
A1+
19 June, 2008
Like every Thursday a group of people staged a protest action at
the Governmental Buildings today. Mothers of dead soldiers showed
their sons pictures demanding that the murderers be punished. Another
group of people held Arman Babajanian's picture and demanded to set
him free. Still others, deprived of their property rights, shouted:
"Thieves!", "Robbers!"
Parents of the soldiers killed in the Army demanded a special
commission that would be engaged in the process of discovering the
real murderers. In their words their sons have been killed, but they
were severely beaten before they died.
"My 21-year-old son was killed in the military units of Stepanavan
last year on April 15. He used to be a junior sergeant. I do not
understand how they can conceal such kind of murders," said murdered
Gegham Sergoyan's father.
"Who did our children die for?" asked the parents.
They were accepted by Defense Minister Seyran Ohanian who told
them that the murders were committed before he was appointed to the
post. He also noted that the Ministry had a special commission formed
to investigate the case.
Regarding the other groups staging a protest action MP of the
"Heritage" Party Zaruhi Postanjian stated: "The attitude of the
Government should be changed and Arman Babajanian should be released
ahead of the detention term together with the other political
prisoners."
