    Brutal Treatment of Children At Boarding School

    The teachers of the boarding school of Byureghavan punish children by
    making them stand up all through the classes. Following the classes
    through a peephole, the representatives of the Ombudsman witnessed a
    teacher hitting a child with a pen at the fingers and using
    inappropriate expressions. Children are afraid of the principles and
    never communicate to them their problems. Besides, violations of
    conditions of food storage have been detected.

    Earlier the National Prevention Mechanism of the Human Rights Defender
    warned the principle of the boarding school for multiple times against
    using expired food, enabling normal conditions of food storage and the
    need to resolve other issues.

    They have communicated the mentioned issues to the Ministry of Labor
    and Social Affairs which afterwards carried out a unilateral and
    non-complete investigation, explanations were requested from only the
    employees whose behavior was controversial. They did not listen to the
    children studying at the school at all. The ombudsman's deputy has
    contacted the deputy minister of labor and social affairs Filaret
    Berikyan but the deputy minister did not respond appropriately.

    HRD Karen Andreasyan urges to conduct a complete, objective and
    comprehensive investigation of breaches detected in the boarding
    school of Byureghavan to prevent similar cases in the future and hold
    responsible the officials who breached, the message staff of the Human
    Rights Defender holds.
