Paris. A statue commemorating the World War I era massacre of Armenians
was stolen, local authorities said on Saturday, two days after French
lawmakers approved a controversial bill that would make it a crime to
deny that mass killings of Armenians in Turkey amounted to genocide, AP
reported. The bronze monument, installed in front of the train station
in the Paris suburb of Chaville in 2002, vanished between Friday night
and Saturday morning, said authorities for the Haut-de-Seine region.
