15:52 ~U 27.01.14
Sergey Nikoyan, the Ukrainian-Armenian mankilled in the Kyiv clashes
last week, was buried Sunday in Bereznavotka, a village in the
Dnepropetrovsk region, Obozrevatel.com reported.
"Seryozha was consigned to earth. Hundreds of people had come to the
village where it was very difficult to get. They had queued up for
laying flowers. As his coffin was lowered, people started singing the
Ukrainian anthem," a Facebook user, Boris Fiatov, said in a post on
the social networking site.
According to the Russian Komsomolskaya Pravda, hundreds had come to
the funeral ceremony to bid their last farewell to the activist.
Nikoyan, whose family is said to have moved to Ukraine from
Nagorno-Karabakh in 1990, was the only son of his parents, says
the publication.
"The Nikoyan's family was very friendly; they always lived in peace.
Sergey easily learned Ukrainian at school. He knew the language so
well, that Taras Shevchenko become one of his favorite writers,"
Vladimir Khren, the mayor of Bereznavotka, was quoted as saying.
