168 ZHAM: ARMENIAN PARLIAMENT SPEAKER SENDS $250 TO PENSIONER AND HER MENTALLY DEFICIENT SON
10:13 ~U 07.11.13
Armenian Parliament Speaker Hovik Abrahamyan has responded to the
newspaper's article about Rima Talanchyan, a pensioner who addressed
a letter to Abrahamyan and demanded that Armenian MPs consider the
issue of pensions rather than their own salaries.
"If you do not reply to my letter, I will kill my mentally deficient
son and commit suicide, and you will be guilty," the pensioner wrote.
After that, some people visited Rima Talanchyan and gave her
AMD 100,000 (about $250). "They told us the money was from Hovik
Abrahamyan. They gave us 100 drams and urged us not to go into
extremes, especially because pensions will be raised from next
January."
