Today, October 27, is the 14th anniversary of the terrorist act in
Armenia's Parliament, when a group of terrorists headed by Nairi and
Karen Hunanyan murdered Armenia's Prime Minister Vazgen Sargsyan,
Parliament Speaker Karen Demirchyan, as well as Parliament
Vice-Speakers Yuri Bakhshyan and Ruben Miroyan, Minister Leonard
Petrosyan and three MPs.
The victims' relatives believe that the 2-year-long investigation did
not answer the question about who was behind that crime.
Yuri Bakhshyan's widow, Anahit Bakhshyan, told Tert.am that now that
14 years have passed the investigation has not answered the question
about the masterminds behind the crime.
`My personal opinion does not differ from public opinion. No step was
made to investigate the terrorist act and identify the masterminds. If
course, I have speculations as to who they are and how the arms were
found in Parliament and how the eight people were murdered,' she said.
As to whether she believes that crime will one day be solved, Ms
Bakhshyan said: `As long as the ruling circles include the people that
are somehow involved in the `October 27' case, it will remain
unsolved.'
With respect to the problem of detection of the October 27 crime, Aram
Sargsyan, brother of Vazgen Sargsyan, told journalists that `justice
is supposed to convince the public that this one is guilty and that
one is the victim. The public drew its own conclusions - who were
interested in that.'
He recalled the trial, saying. `Now speeded up, now delayed. The judge
made ill, most of the witnesses disregarded and lawyers' petitions
rejected.'
As to who were interested in the crime, Aram Sargsyan said: `All those
that satisfied their personal and materialistic ambitions, all those
who were lucky.'
According to him, the result is present-day Armenia with its
`conspicuous wealth amid great poverty.'
Asked about the persons interested in that crime, Hovhannes Igityan, a
Board member, Armenian National Movement (ANM), told Tert.am: `If you
come up to anyone, even a person not interested in politics, anyone
will tell you why it happened and who were the masterminds.' Mr
Igityan is sure that some people in the ruling circles are still
putting obstacles to the detection of the crime.
