“Sasoun Mikayelian, Myasnik Malkhasian, Hakob Hakobian, Smbat Ayvazian, Gagik Jhangirian, Mushegh Saghatelian, Husik Baghdasarian, Hovik Harutyunian, Ashot Zakarian and other yerkrapahs, who regularly visited Yerablur on May 8, were not able to pay respect to their dead friends today. They will have to spend the day under arrest.”
“Այսօր Եռաբլուր չայցելեցին ամեն տարի մայիսի 8-ին իրենց զոհված մարտական ընկերներին հարգանքի տուրք մատուցող մի շարք երկրապահներ՝ Սասուն Միքայելյանի, Մյասնիկ Մալխասյանի, Հակոբ Հակոբյանի, Սմբատ Այվազյանի, Գագիկ Ջհանգիրյանի, Մուշեղ Սաղաթելյանի, Հուսիկ Բաղդասարյանի, Հովիկ Հարությունյանի, Աշոտ Զաքարյանի եւ մյուսների գլխավորությամբ: Նրանք այս օրը կնշեն մեկուսարաններում:”
For those who don’t already know, the word Yerkrapah comes from Yerkir (Country) + Pah (Keeper/Defender), they are known as the Freedom Fighters. And now, directly because of the Kocharyan-Sargsyan regime, many are either imprisoned or buried.
In an odd way, this actually makes sense.
Someone who imprisons or kills a Keeper of the Country is a Destroyer of the Country.
Someone who imprisons or kills a Freedom Fighter is one who fights for Oppression.
And that is exactly what Sargsyan has done, and continues to do.

YURI KHACHATUROV - FIRST SECRETARY OF DEFENSE
April 15, 2008
On April 15 Serzh Sargssian signed a decree on appointing Deputy Defense Minister Lieutenant-General Yuri Khachaturov Chief of Staff of the RA Armed Forces, First Secretary of Defense.
Under another April 15 decree the rank of Colonel General was conferred on Yuri Grigori Khachaturov.
[from a1plus.am]
The corresponding article in Armenian from Zhamanak.com notes:
Որոշ տեղեկություններով` Խաչատուրովը եղել է մարտի 1-ի արյունալի դեպքերի գլխավոր դերակատարներից մեկը: Թերեւս դա «հաշվի առնելով» է Ս.Սարգսյանը երեկ Խաչատուրովին նաեւ շնորհել գեներալ-գնդապետի զինվորական կոչում:
[transl]: According to certain sources, Khachaturov was one of the leading players of the bloody events which occurred on March 1st. Perhaps Serj Sargsyan had that "in mind" yesterday when he confered upon Khachaturov the rank of Colonel-General.
