At around 10:30 p.m., Saturday, Norik Mirzakhanyan, the head of the communal department of the town of Ejmiatsin, and his friends beat up a citizen in the very center of the town, next to the square. The eyewitnesses told www.aravot.am that the driver of an Opel Vectra with 01 084 license plate outdrove Norik Mirzakhanyan, aka Kartol Noro, rushing on the central street of Ejmiatsin. The latter couldn’t stand that impudent deed – he stopped the car that had outdriven him, pulled the driver out of the car and bombarded him with curses and blows.
Since the incident took place near the café belonging to General Manvel and the general’s bodyguards were probably in the café, they appeared at the scene very quickly and helped Kartol Noro “to defend his honor.” Anyway, our interlocutor said that cars “with 045” had come to the scene very quickly and had beaten that youth for about 10 minutes. The latter defended himself as much as he could. No one of the eyewitnesses dared to interfere realizing quite well that he would suffer the same fate. www.aravot.am hasn’t managed to find out about the youth’s fate and other details of the incident yet.
Let us mention that Norik Mirzakhanyan is one of Manvel Grigoryan’s close friends. They say the general does everything to protect Norik.
