This news was conveyed to Epress.am by one of the residents, Aleksan Smbatyan.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&quot;People are angry, so we decided to block the road. We will open the road when the aforementioned officials come and meet with us,&quot; he said.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe residents later opened the road to traffic when a representative from the RA General Prosecutor&#39;s Office came and said that Gevorg Kostanyan will meet with them on Monday. Residents, however, said that if the meeting doesn&#39;t take place they will resort to similar acts of civil disobedience.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tNote, Hrach Muradyan, a member of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (Dashnaktsutyun), was murdered exactly one year ago, on April 2, near his office. In the same month, Arayik Petrosyan was arrested and charged with the murder. Friends and family of both Muradyan and Petrosyan have repeatedly claimed that Petrosyan had nothing to do with the crime.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tOn Dec. 25, 2013, Petrosyan was released from Nubarashen Penitentiary, as the preliminary investigation could not confirm his participation in the crime.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n\t<iframe width=\"425\" height=\"344\"
