    At 12 o'clock the dismantling brigades resumed dismantling of boutiques in
    Mashtots Park. The police chained the boutiques blocking access to them. The
    police undertook more violent actions today.

    The member of the first brigade Manvel Sargsyan urged the dismantlers not to
    resist to the police. If they hit fall down, if they arrest, surrender, if
    they take to court, we will go and invite the criminals who have perpetrated
    this situation.

    Stepan Danielyan read aloud the instruction of Mayor Margaryan not to allow
    a group of people to hinder the construction of boutiques, parking area in
    the park. The hand of one of the dismantlers was injured amid the hustle.
    While the dismantlers were trying to access the boutiques, the young
    environmentalists put up 2 or 3 tents in the other side of the park. They
    announced to launch 24-hour sit in.

    About one hundred policemen and red-beret forces have been deployed in the
    park. They assaulted the young environmentalists surrounding the tents to
    protect them from being taken away. The policemen outnumbering the activists
    were able to tear to parts the tents and arrested Vahram Soghomonyan, Gor
    Hakobyan, Yeghia Nersisyan, Arman Yaralyan, Gevorg Safaryan, Karen
    Harutyunyan. The policearrested Armen Hovhanisyan, member of the first
    brigade. Yeghia Nersisyan is injured.
