Parents of military draftees killed during a period of non combat who protest every Thursday outside the Armenian government building didn’t wait for the government meeting to end today.
They quickly went to the morgue where the body of Tigran Vano Varyan, killed while on duty on Feb. 29 at a Nagorno-Karabakh military base, is to undergo an autopsy. Recall, according to preliminary findings, Varyan was killed by his own gun.
“Right now, us parents are going to the morgue because it’s from the morgue where all the illegal activities begin. Those parents who are going now, all their sons’ cases were manipulated from there — murders turn into ‘unfortunate accidents’ and ‘suicides’ there,” said Suren Ohanjanyan, father of killed conscript Tigran Ohanjanyan.
According to him, with this move they want to help the parents who unfortunately have joined their ranks.
“We have a desire to help these parents, so that they too don’t get to be where we are,” he said.
