Yerevan residents have been prevented from paying tribute to the memory of Seryozha Avetisyan, six-month-old baby who was injured by Russian soldier Valery Permyakov on Jan 12 and died in the hospital on Jan 19.
Dozens of people gathered in Liberty Square so as to light candles on the outer stairs of the Yerevan Opera House in memory of the deceased child but the police did not let them do it. They said the melted candles would dirty the stairway.
A family of six members was killed by Russian soldier Valery Permyakov in Gyumri on Jan 12. The only survivor, six-month-old Seryozha Avetisyan, died in the hospital on Monday.
