Muradyan who died during his army service under non-combat conditions,
at a meeting with RA Minister of Defense Seyran Ohanyan (pictured,

-- a matter that Margarita Khachatryan through various people recently
brought up and, according to Muradyan, with which she tried to publicly
discredit her. In conversation with Epress.am, Muradyan said that after
her son's death, funds to cover the funeral expenses were allocated
to her from the state, which was confirmed by the defense minister.
On June 26, Muradyan told the Epress.am correspondent that she was
approached by a woman who introduced herself as Ano of the Armenian
National Army who told her that on the day of her son Valeriy
Muradyan's funeral, Chair of Zinvor ("soldier") Association of NGOs,
mother of a deceased soldier Margarita Khachatryan (known by the
nickname "Maroz") asked the Ministry of Defense to transfer money to
the Muradyan family not only to cover funeral expenses, but also to
purchase an apartment, to which the family, according to Ano, agreed.
Muradyan believes this was said to discredit her, as she claims she
didn't receive an apartment.
"[At the meeting,] I told Ohanyan, first, who asked you to kill
my child, then give money for the funeral? When I asked how much
money did you give me, he said, Mrs. Nana, don't say such a thing,
that is allocated to you, nothing illegal was done -- you received
the amount legally allocated to you. He also told me not to pay
attention to such talk, and I said, how can I not pay attention, if
those people came purposefully to embarrass and disgrace me? I have
nothing to be embarrassed about: I'm a parent whose child was killed
in the Nagorno-Karabakh army, and if money was allocated to me for
the funeral, I don't have to declare it to the whole world," she said.
According to Muradyan, the minister promised to talk about this issue
also with Margarita Khachatryan.
"We asked Ohanyan to organize a meeting with the president and to
intervene to create a commission in the National Assembly, so that
the cases can be submitted for public discussion. He promised, and
we wrote a letter, which we will now deliver and wait," she concluded.
