«If they want to chop down the trees, let them do so, but please leave one so that we can come and hang ourselves here after the trees have been chopped down», said the residents of the Yerevan Zaqaria Sarkavag street 151/1, 151/3 and 151/4 houses during the act of complaint today.

The history repeats itself. The problem of the Sebastya areas has not yet been solved when these areas have deserved the same fate. As the owner of the land Souren Egiyan is telling, there were no parks near their building for the children to play, so they brought the necessary cars, gathered stones, planted trees and cultivated the area.

Two years ago the residents of the building applied to the community head in order to privatize the park created by them 17 years ago. But without letting them know the community head sold the area in an auction to the “Tigran” LTD to build a Car Service Complex. The participants of the meeting mentioned that the above mentioned LTD belongs to a NA deputy.

The residents of the building had applied to the Court of First Instance and won the case, but the community head re applied to the Court of Appeal and won the case. Now the residents have decided to go even to the Euro court. Besides, they have also applied to NA and to the President, but all in vain.

By the way, let us mention that 13 non-governmental organizations, such as “Hope”, “Mijnaberd”, “Spiritual Armenia”, “Armenian Committee of Helsinki Civic Assembly”, are going to send an open letter to the RA NA President Arthur Baghdasaryan, RA Attorney General Aghvan Hovsepyan, RA Ombudsman Larissa Alaverdyan, RA Prime Minister Andranik Margaryan, asking to cease the violation of the rights of the RA citizens, and stop selling the areas by closed auctions.
