YEREVAN. – The 26-year-old son of Martin Saroyan, a judge at Armenia’s Shirak Region’s General Jurisdiction Court, suffocated to death at his own garage a day before the New Year holidays, Aravot daily writes.

“The latter [the son], as the Gyumri [city] residents told, opened the garage, sat in the car, turned on the engine—in an attempt to warm it up and drive—but he was poisoned from the gas which the engine produced. He was the judge’s only son, he had just finished his postgraduate studies, and he was not married,” Aravot writes.
