    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia's representative in the Organization of the
    Black Sea Economic Cooperation, Karen Mirzoyan (residence in Istanbul),
    confirmed that Armenian citizens are being arrested in Turkey. "I have
    got information proving this fact. However, I am not competent for
    such kind of issues and cannot furnish a more precise information,"
    Karen Mirzoyan said, RFE/RL reports.

    Irish Times newspaper reported that some 100 Armenians - illegal
    migrants - were detained in Turkey for further deportation to the
    homeland. "Their deportation is viewed as revenge to adoption of
    the Armenian Genocide resolution by the U.S. House Foreign Affairs
    Committee," the newspaper said.

    Meanwhile, Karen Mirzoyan said that Armenians who illegally resided
    in Turkey were detained "with a purpose of deportation over violation
    of visa regime."
