November 2, Armenian Minister of Defense Seyran Ohanyan received the
relatives of Artak Nazaryan and Samvel Khachatryan.
The press service of the RA Ministry of Defense informed NEWS.am that
Minister Ohanyan assured the soldiers' relatives that the investigation
into the soldiers' death is under his personal control.
All the measures are being taken to find out all the consequences
and punish those guilty with all the rigors of the law.
Minister Ohanyan also received the relatives of Manvel Saribekyan, who
was killed in Azerbaijani captivity. He expressed his deep condolences
to them. The RA Minister of Defense also received 47 other citizens,
parents of soldiers, relatives of freedom fighters, as well as retired
officers, and discussed social and legal problems with them.
NEWS.am reminds readers that Artak Nazaryan was killed in one of the
military units in Tavush, Armenia, under uncertain circumstances. The
official version, a suicide, is dubious. Numerous marks of beatings
were found on the body.
Samvel Khachatryan (born in 1992) was found hanged in the basement
in his military unit on October 3. He had been brutally beaten up,
strangled and then hanged so as it might look as suicide.
