Armenia’s opposition Pre-Parliament organization reports that four masked men attacked and severely beat Artsakh War veteran Sourik Sargsyan earlier this morning in Yerevan.

In the following video statement released by the organization, Mr. Sargsyan says that only President Serzh Sargsyan is capable of creating criminal gangs that do his bidding.

Mr. Sargsyan also argues that his attackers should have killed him because now he will search them out for reprisal. The war vet says that none of this will be taken lying down.
