The woman describes the incident in an open letter, linking the attack to her support for the Sasna Tsrer group.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the evening, as I was walking to the entrance to my apartment building, a young man &#8211; with a hat over his face, wearing a dark-colored jacket &#8211; quickly approached me and hit me in one rapid movement. He then immediately ran away. Upon entering the building, I saw a cut on the breast of my jacket where he had hit that could only have been caused by a sharp-cutting object.\u201d Sargsyan writes, stressing that this has been the third attack against her over the past year.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/epress.am\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/kurtka.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-283815\" src=\"http:\/\/epress.am\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/kurtka.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe first attack took place on September 7, 2017 &#8211; during a hearing on Zhirayr Sefilyan\u2019s case &#8211; \u00a0when the perpetrator stuck a 7-cm awl in front of multiple police officers into to the wheel of my car parked outside the Shengavit court,\u201d according to the woman, the second attack occurred on December 12, 2017, in the same court.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can only explain all three incidents with my support for the Sasna Tsrer group.
