    PanARMENIAN.Net - The Union of Armenians of Russia disseminated a
    statement saying that "a tragic incident happened on April 7, 2012;
    businessman Gagik (Gegham in earlier media reports) Sargsyan was
    assaulted in his house in Bogoroditsk town in Tula region."

    "Four robbers (who later appeared to have previous criminal records)
    armed with a gun, knives and baseball bat, attacked the house and
    beat Sargsyan and his family, wife and four junior kids including a
    one-year-old infant. In an attempt to protect his family, Sargsyan
    grabbed a kitchen knife and stabbed the assaulters; 3 of four died
    on the spot," the statement said.

    "Sargsyan is currently is hospital with numerous injuries. According
    to media reports, both experts and neighbors agree that he did his
    best to protect his loved ones. However, some doubts were voiced as
    to Sargsyan's possible exceeding the necessary self-defense.

    This tragic incident has sparked large public debates. Representatives
    of different nations address the Russian Armenians' Union asking to
    look into careful and fair investigation of this case.

    In this regard, the Union of Armenians of Russia informs that
    immediately after the incident, its leadership contacted the relevant
    federal and state law enforcement bodies who confirmed that regional
    and local authorities are actively investigating this case, and
    undertake all necessary measures with regard to medical treatment to
    victims and ensuring security for Sargsyan and his family members.

    "We keep an eye on the situation and are ready to provide any support
    to the family of our compatriot, if required," the Union said.

    Also, the Union is convinced that after necessary investigative
    actions are taken, relevant conclusions will be drawn, and Sargsyan
    who protected his family will face a just verdict.

    Following the April 7 incident, a criminal case is filed against
    Sargsyan, who is charged of homicide of two and more persons.
