Edmond Marukyan's Brother Dismissed from Job

The newspaper "Hraparak" reports that the intolerance and revenge of the authorities knows no bounds. It turns out that Krist Marukyan, the brother of Edmond Marukyan, who worked as the director of the SMART center at the Armenian Children’s Charitable Foundation in Lori, has been dismissed from his position.

"This coincided with the period when Edmond Marukyan and 'My Step' were experiencing strained relations," said our source. Do you think the decision by the Charitable Foundation was made at the urging of the authorities? "Why not—such a signature is not far from either the Prime Minister or the Deputy Prime Minister," he added.

The LHK has confirmed that Krist Marukyan has been dismissed, but did not comment on the reasons.
