Relatives of the Avetisyan family, which was killed in January in Armenia’s Gyumri city, do not think that Russian soldier Valery Permyakov, who is charged with the murder of seven members of this family, had acted alone when committing this crime (PHOTOS).

The victims’ sister, Rita Petrosyan, stated about the aforementioned.

“It’s impossible to alone carry out that cold-heartedness whereby two children were killed,” she said.

Petrosyan also noted that the arrangement on transferring Permyakov to the Armenian side shall be fulfilled.

“Otherwise, it’s difficult to predict what will happen,” she added. “All of Armenia will stand up.”

The trial of Valery Permyakov has started in Gyumri. The Russian garrison military court will render a verdict against the defendant on three charges: Military desertion with weapons; theft of weapons and ammunition; and illegal acquisition, transfer, possession, transportation, or carrying of weapons and ammunition.

The Armenian judiciary, on the other hand, will engage in the criminal case on murder charges.
