    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ May 1 servicemen of the special military detachment
    of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia beat Georgian MP
    Hayk Meltonian and over 30 residents of Ghushchi Armenian village,
    reported A-Info. The special detachment servicemen arrived in the
    village and started a quarrel with a young resident of the village and,
    feeling insulted with the response, hit him. This entailed beating
    the Armenians that have gathered at the scene. At the time Georgian MP
    Hayk Meltonian was in the village to congratulate the veterans of the
    Great Patriotic War. Getting to know about the incident, he arrived
    there. Introducing himself as a Parliament Deputy, Meltonian asked the
    servicemen to stop the fight, however he found himself "in the heat
    of the moment." The police of Tsalka region instituted no proceedings
    over the case, however apologies the servicemen apologized to the MP,
    as well as to Ghushchi residents.
