GYUMRI. – Prosecutor General of Shirak Region Raffi Aslanyan left the building after unsuccessful attempts to have the Avetisyans' relatives removed out of his office.

Aslanyan failed to meet their demands to arrange a meeting of a phone call with Armenia's Prosecutor General Gevorg Kostanyan.

The relatives stayed in his office and are talking to the head of local police department, the Armenian News-NEWS.am correspondent reports from Gyumri.

As reported earlier, six members of the Avetisyan family—including a two-year-old girl—were shot dead, and a six-month-old baby was wounded in their house in Gyumri on January 12; and the baby boy died in hospital on January 19. Valery Permyakov, a serviceman of the 102nd Russian Military Base in Gyumri, stands accused in this crime. The soldier is charged under Russian law, with “the murder of more than two people” and “desertion with a service weapon.”
