    CUTTING VEINS FIRST INSTANCE IN PUBLIC PROTEST, HUMAN RIGHTS DEFENDER SAYS

    16:52 21.08.13

    Cutting the veins is widely practiced in penitentiaries, but this
    is the first instance during a public protest, Head of the Helsinki
    Citizens' Assembly Vanadzor office Artur Sakunts told Tert.am.

    "This is the first instance I have learned about," he said as he
    commented on a man cutting his vein during a protest in Yerevan.

    Anushavan Petrosyan, one of the participants in the protest in front
    of Building 5A in Komitas Avenue, Yerevan, cut his veins and was
    rushed to hospital.

    Residents of Buildings 5A, 7 and 9 are protesting the construction
    of a 14-storey building amid 5-storey buildings in the area.

    On Tuesday, Head of the Arabkir community Hrair Antonyan promised
    the residents to produce the documents and prove the legality of the
    construction project. However, he has not so far kept his promise.

    This is evidence of Antonyan's attitude to the residents' problems.

    "In this respect, Yerevan Mayor Taron Margaryan has to think of who
    he has appointed as head of the community," Sakunts said.
