ONE MORE WITNESS TESTIFIES ON OCTOBER 27 TERRORIST ACTION CASE

Social

Witness on October 27 terrorist action case, former Social Security Minister Razmik Martirosyan testified today before the court. Martirosyan has been familiar with defendant Nairi Hunanyan for long time and used to meet him in the House of the Parliament.

The minister didn’t see how the terrorists rushed the session hall of the National Assembly. He only heard shootings. His initial assumption was that Turks were storming the House of the Parliament. Then, it seemed to Martirosyan, that the terrorists didn’t realize all seriousness of what they were doing. In his words, defendant Edik Grigoryan expressed regret about what they have committed, saying there were more victims than intended. And how many were intended remains unknown. The killings have hardly been grounded on personal hostility, witness says. “Only Vazgen can drive the country out the crisis”, he quoted Nairi Hunanyan as saying.
