The crime occurred in Gyumri yesterday, in the middle of the night, received all kinds of estimates by the population of this city. Although no formal charges are brought against Valerie Permyakov, a military servant of Number 102 military base suspected in the crime and being in search, it is yet not evident whether he has committed the crime or someone else with his machine gun, however, it reached the point that the Russians are being criticized in this city with once Russian traditions, saying, “Is this how you defend Armenians’ security?” As to what could be the reason for the murder of 6 person is still unknown. As told by the neighbors of Avetisyan family, they were smart, humble people with modest income and sometimes with debts. The father and married son were going abroad to work to earn the daily bread for the family. There are even doubts that the Russian soldier was implementing the order of the enemy country.
“Aravot” talked to Gagik Hambaryan on this matter, according to whom, Russians do absolutely nothing to protect the security of Armenians. “A strange coincidence. Yesterday, Azerbaijanis fired on Tavush Marz, it is not Artsakh, it is the territory of the Republic of Armenia, and according to the agreement signed between Serzh Sargsyan and Dmitry Medvedev in 2010, Russia is committed not only to protect the security of the Armenian-Turkish and Armenian-Iranian, but also the Armenian-Georgian and Armenian-Azerbaijani border. Interestingly, up to this point, Putin-created CSTO has not respond to these events, and today, we received a response from the Russian side for the Permyakov case, who has attacked a small house in Gyumri, not even sparing the newborn child,” says Gagik Hambaryan. According to the political scientist, this is the picture of infamous atmosphere in the Russian army, because Russians bring anyone whom they want to Armenia. “I had information long ago that a great part of military servants in the Russian base are the youth from poor and hardship families, whom Russia sends to Armenia like an exile. Our government authorities should have thought about this long ago, and I hope that after this incident, they would be demanding that the serviceman in Armenia should come from normal families,” says Gagik Hambaryan.
According to him, the problem is that the Russian servicemen who commit crimes in Armenia always remain unpunished and the case is so concealed that the Armenians do not know what happened next. As an example, Gagik Hambaryan cited the brutal murder of 1999 in Gyumri, when two or three Russian soldiers in drunk opened an irregular fire in the city center. As a result, one person was killed and 7 were seriously injured, and this case was concealed by the efforts of Number 102 military base leadership. According to political scientist, Gyumri people did not know what punishment their assaulters got. Gagik Hambaryan also recalled a case happened not too long ago in Vahramaberd village, when innocent children were killed by a mine explosion. “They were left absolutely unpunished as if they were privileged, often it leaves the impression that not they but we are guests in their country. Interestingly, how should the Armenian authorities treat the Russian murderer in this case, when Russian authorities deliberately decried and humiliated unintentionally crime acted Hrachya Harutyunyan making him dressed in a robe?” asks the political scientist. To the point, the Gyumri people are outraged by the police work. They are angry that the perpetrator was released even a day after the violent crime and is a threat to the innocent population of the city.
