On Thursday evening, three masked men entered a house in Ninotsminda town in the predominantly-Armenian-populated Samtskhe-Javakheti Province of Georgia, beat the two women who were at home at the time, and one of them died on the spot.

The Ninotsminda residents told Armenian News-NEWS.am that these masked men had asked the landlady to open the door of the house maintaining that their car had broken down and they were left stranded, and they asked for their help. 

Entering the home, however, they brutally beat Emma Sahakyan, 70, and her daughter-in-law Nazik Sahakyan, 50.

The 70-year-old woman died on the spot.

But it is noteworthy that the perpetrators stole nothing from the house.

Nazik Sahakyan said these masked men spoke with them in Russian, whereas in Georgian—with one another.
