We demand our property certificates," said the residents of an
Etchmiadzin hostel in front of the Presidential resident today morning.
The protesters state that in 2007 Serzh Sargsyan promised to return
the hostel to its actual owners.
"They keep cheating us since 2007. According to the law hostel
residents have the right to privatise their flats. They promised to
return us our flats after a facelift," said the mother of two children
Mariam Sargsyan.
In 2007 the residents had to leave their flats as the building was
under repairs. But now they are in a plight as they are not given
their property certificates.
"Let them give us a notary’s certificate and we shall vacate the
building. The City Hall wants to force the 70 residents of the house to
the street and sell our flats at a higher price," said the protesters.
The police urged the women to move to the other side of the street
but the protesters were consistent in their demands.
The protesters are going to ask international embassies for asylum
as they have nowhere to live.
