The statue of Armenian prominent prosaist Hrant Matevosyan is reported
to have been vandalised in the town of Vanadzor on March 15. Policemen
arriving on the scene found a 12-year-old teenager painting the statue
red. Rudik Varosyan, Head of Juvenile Department of Vanadzor Police,
says the boy simply wanted to "beautify" the statue. In the meantime,
the adults indifferently watched the boy. An inquiry into the case
is in progress.
