Country - Thursday, 19 September 2013, 13:44
In the night of September 18 a car accident happened in front of
the City Hall of Yerevan. A ZIL truck hit the car of the citizens on
sit-in in front of the City Hall in the middle of the night when the
street is not busy. The activists parked their car in front of the City
Hall to sometimes protect them from rain or sun because the City Hall
and the Police did not authorize them to put up a tent. Earlier the
citizens demanding the resignation of head of transport department
Henrik Navasardyan and head of Yerevan Trans who runs a bus line
Misak Hambardzumyan were attacked by street gangs, Navasardyan's
sons who tried to provoke fights, swore and spat in the direction of
the citizens. In one of these cases Navasardyan's son was arrested
together with his girlfriend, both were drunk. Later activists were
attacked in the streets, behind the corners. Now trucks are used
against citizens. Apparently someone is smiling with satisfaction
while watching the video and winking to their mates, being proud of
their idea. There is a camera in this part of the street. It would
be interesting to see how the truck came and hit the car parked at
the pavement with such little traffic.
