YEREVAN, Armenia (AP) " About 1,000 Armenians have surrounded a
Russian consulate and Russian military base, clashing with police
to demand the handover of a Russian soldier suspected of murdering
a family to Armenian authorities.
Hundreds of cars blaring horns moved Wednesday through the town of
Gyumri, laying siege to the consulate and the base where the suspect
is being held.
Armenian officials suspect the Russian soldier, Valery Permyakov, of
shooting a family of six dead at their home Gyumri early Monday. The
only family member to survive the massacre was a 6-month-old baby,
who suffered stab wounds.
Russia, Armenia's main sponsor and ally, offered condolences and
assistance in the investigation, but the protesters demanded that
the suspect be handed over to the Armenian authorities.
