On April 7, around 5 P.M. violence was used against citizens Isabella Sargsyan and Lala Aslikyan near Erebuni hotel. They had attached a poster in English "Freedom to 14 political prisoners" on the hotel wall. At the time the forum organized by the International Federation of Human Rights was going on in the hotel.

Lala Aslikyan tells that at first 4 people approached them (they didn't know them) and two of them started to push her and Isabella demanding to tear the poster off the wall. 

"They were standing so close to us that I even asked them to step back; they were so close I couldn't even see their faces," Lala said. "Then two of the men started to push us, hit Isabella at the head, and the girl that came with them was quickly tearing the poster off the wall."

Lala said the girl had a badge but she couldn't manage to read it because of the mess.

Half an hour after the incident they applied to the Kentron police to report on what had happened.  

After noticing the A1+ camera, the hotel security service officers ran away and closed themselves at the neighbouring room closing the camera with their hands. A1+ site informs about that.  

The incident happened before the eyes of several FIDH human rights activists one of whom, a woman, told in English the security service officers that were trying to close the door on her face: "You shouldn't have behaved like that."

By the way, young members of Armenian National Congress who on the occasion of the holiday of April 7 wanted to present flowers to the FIDH women human rights activists on behalf of political prisoners and relatives of the March 1 victims were not allowed in. "Not with Sasoun Mikaelyan's picture," the hotel security service employees told the youth. Only after the interference of Armenian representatives of FIDH the youth were allowed in the accompaniment of security officers to get into the conference hall and present flowers to the women.

As to the question what the reason of such attitude of Erebuni hotel employees towards representatives of opposition was, employees of the same hotel recommended to find out who the real owner of the hotel was.

P.S. Today President of Armenia congratulated women and mothers of Armenia but employees of law enforcement bodies could not avoid their adopted mode of action and used violence against two young and nice women.
