The former head of the Chief Department of Civil Aviation of Armenia
Shahen Petrossyan has been severely beaten.
The Haykakan Zhamanak daily reports that the attack took place near
the Stop rock-cafe in Yerevan on May 4 evening. Petrossyan asked one
of the employees why they hadn't put the poster of the leader of the
Prospering Armenia party Gagik Tsarukyan on the facade of their cafe:
"He has such an influential face, doesn't he?" Petrossyan asked and
made an insulting remark about Tsarukyan. After that two young people
approached him and asked not to insult Tsarukyan. Petrossyan said that
if they had any questions they could meet him the next day and gave
them his phone number.
After that the young people called somebody. Several Jeeps drove up a
few minutes later and a group tall youngsters shoved Petrossyan into
one of the cars, took him to some unknown place and beat him
severely. Petrossyan came to his senses somewhere in the Nor Nork
community.
He has not yet appealed to the policy - "there is no sense in doing
that. I prefer to keep silence for the moment," Petrossyan said
