VIDEO: Bring Yegho, take me, in 30 minutes I will tell what really happened there, says parent of victim
Bring Yegho (Captain Yeghishe Hakobyan, who is accused of igniting the furnace with gasoline) to me; in 30 minutes, I will tell what really happened there. This was stated today, March 29, during a meeting with reporters by Gabriel Kirakosyan, the father of Hayk Kirakosyan, one of the soldiers who died in the tragic fire at the military barracks in Azat village.
“Are they not able to clarify this? How can such a thing happen? Now if we come out of here, we could go after someone if we wanted to; if they want to clarify, they can go back years and figure everything out. The Prime Minister says everything is clearer than clear; it’s clear for them, they know what happened and why they are covering it up. There is no crime scene, no pictures. We have every reason to think the fish rots from the head. If not a murder order, then it was an order to set a fire,” he said.
