A large number of police vehicles have been seen approaching the police patrol service building in Yerevan seized yesterday morning by a group calling itself Sasna Dzrer, this according to a correspondent of Armtimes.com.
People gather to debate yesterday’s armed seizure of police building in Yerevan.
Yerevan police detained Davit Sanasaryan, a Heritage Party member of the Yerevan Municipal Council, and others who had gathered in Liberty Square to hold a public discussion regarding yesterday’s armed seizure of a police building.
Armenia’s National Security Service (NSS) claims that the hostages and hostage takers at a Yerevan police patrol service building have been provided with food, water and medicine today.
Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan has failed to meet his promise of fixing two patches of road in the country’s Shirak province.
In an interview with Hetq, Founding Parliament secretariat member Alek Yenikomshian (photo) says that Jirayr Sefilian is ready to enter into negotiations with law enforcement officials and even President Sargsyan to guarantee that the standoff at the Yerevan police patrol office ends without further bloodshed.
The following video shows the scene last night near the patrol police building in Yerevan seized by the armed Sasna Dzrer (Daredevils of Sasoun) group on the morning of July 17.
The NSS, in a recently released statement, urged the Sasna Dzrer group to lay down their arms and thus prevent further loss of life. One police employee died in the initial seizure of the building.
Alek Yenikomshian, a member of the secretariat of the Founding Parliament opposition group, told Hetq that the group holding hostages at the police station they seized yesterday released one of the policeman last night as a sign of goodwill.
According to lawyer Ara Karagyuzyan, the above photo depicts Vaghinak Shoushanyan after being released from police custody last night.
Trucks block access on Yerevan’s Khorenatsi Street that leads to the police building still under the control of the Daredevils of Sasoun armed group.
