    Newly-drafted conscript commits suicide in Vanadzor

    20:29 - 03.12.11


    An Armenian conscript has committed suicide in a military unit in
    Vanadzor city, according to a press release by the Defense Minsitry.

    Narek Davtyan, who was drafted this summer, is reported to have
    committed suicide at around 8pm on Friday.

    A civil society movement called Chenk Lrelu (meaning `No Silence')
    issued a statement late on Saturday, condemning the situation in
    military units.

    The movement said that this trend cannot continue any longer. It also
    called on President Serzh Sargsyan to immediately take measures to
    establish discipline in the army.

    The motivation for the suicide is not clear yet.
