12.10.2014 17:24 epress.am
Today, at around 10am, four masked men attacked and beat veteran
and Union of Veterans' board member Suren Sargsyan, writes Azatutyun
Radio. Sargsyan is currently at the Erebuni medical center.
The medical center informed Azatutyun that the veteran received a
craniocerebral injury, is in stable condition and that his life is
not in danger.
In an interview with the radio station Suren Sargsyan said he
considered the incident as a way to keep veterans silent and stressed
that they are not scared and are not going to give up.
Yesterday, the media reported that two Karabakh war veterans and
Union of Veterans' members, Aparan squad commander Razmik Petrosyan
and Arabo squad commander Manvel Yeghiazaryan were also beaten.
After the latter incidents the Union released a statement noting
that the attack was directed against the union's activities and
intends to silence the veterans, who fight against unlawfulness,
through terrorist acts.
Suren Sargsyan told Aravot.am (ARM) that during the attack, the four
men asked him "do you even know who Mher of Tokhmakh is that you speak
about him?" The veteran, however, thought that the attackers were part
of Serzh Sargsyan's gang, and not Republican Party MP Mher Sedrakyan's
(aka Tokhmakhi Mher) sent men. According to him, the attackers gave
those questions in order to distract him. The veteran noted that he
was preparing to publish the veterans' statement regarding MP Mher
Sedrakyan's statement about Armenia's membership into the EEU.
Earlier, Sedrakyan had stated that Armenia is used to living under
occupation.
