PanARMENIAN.Net - The parents of dead Armenian army soldiers joined
the ranks of Armenian National Congress (ANC) opposition bloc,
Armenian National Movement (ANM) board chairman said.
As Aram Manukyan stated at ANC rally in Yerevan, the dead soldiers'
families consider the change of power to be the only way of resolving
current problems.
Manukyan went on to announce formation of We are Coming new initiative
in Facebook social network.
On August 26, Armenian army soldier Aghasi Abrahamyan died after
being severely beaten.
"What happened to Abramanyan is not just a crime but an immoral act
against a human being," a prosecutor said. "The soldier, who felt
bad was taken to an aid post 30 km far from his military unit. He
stayed there unconscious for 10 hours and then was beaten by the
medical officer."
On September 5, Let's Not Be Silent youth initiative received an alert
on a terrible incident with Hovhannes Vardanyan, 20, who went mad and
is now kept in a mental hospital. A video shot in the hospital shows
Vardanyan, who keeps repeating the military oath and makes random
movements. Asked what happened, he says, "officers... wanted to beat
and rape me." Vardanyan doesn't remember any names.
