The Georgian-Armenian Diocese of the Armenian Apostolic Church again
voices concerns over the encroachments upon the "Sourb Nshan" (holy
sign) church of Tbilisi and its neighboring area. The encroachments
upon the church were committed by the representatives of the Georgian
Orthodox Church.
As reported by the press service of the Georgian-Armenian Diocese,
Georgian priest Tariel Sikenchelashvili continues the illegal fencing
of the "Sourb Nshan" Armenian church (which doesn't operate). The
Georgian-Armenian Diocese has officially informed about this to
the Georgian state government bodies, municipal authorities and the
Georgian Patriarchate, however, they haven't yet taken any measures
to avert the new encroachments upon the Armenian church situated in
the centre of Tbilisi.
The Georgian-Armenian Diocese calls upon all the relevant state
government bodies of Georgia to resolve the above-mentioned problem
as well as determine the issue of the legal status of the traditional
religious organizations within logical time-limits.
