Murder suspect Valery Permyakov killed six members of a family

GYUMRI, Armenia (ArmRadio.am)–“Russian border guards have detained Valery Permyakov, the Russian deserter suspected of killing a family of six in Gyumri, near the village of Bayandur,” Prosecutor of Shirak Province Raffi Aslanyan told GALA TV.

According to preliminary information, he was trying to cross the Armenian-Turkish border. The Prosecutor said Permyakov is currently held by Russian officials at that country’s military base in Gyumri.

Representatives of regional and municipal authorities of Shirak, police and special investigative groups have arrived in Bayandur.

A manhunt was underway in the Shirak region of Armenia for a Permyakov who deserted his post and went on a rampage, killing six members of an Armenian family, among them a two-year girl. A six-month old infant survived the attack but is in critical condition at a local hospital, news agencies reported Monday.

“Military boots with the name and surname of the serviceman have been found at the site,” she added. An AK 74 rifle and 5.45 mm caliber shells have also been found.

Truzyan also identified the murder victims as Seryozha Avetisyan, Hasmik Avetisyan, Armen Avetisyan, Araksya Avetisyan, Aida Avetisyan, Hasmik Avetisyan (2-year-old girl), and Seryozha Avetisyan (6-month-old boy).

The Police have issued a statement calling on all those who have seen Valery Permyakov to call the number or visit the nearest police station. The Police said they are investigating the crime together with representatives from the military base.

All roads leading to Gyumri are blocked now and controlled by police as the suspect is believed to be armed.

Infant ‘Saved By Miracle’
Seryozha Avetisyan, who is only several months old, was operated on after being hospitalized in the wake of the violent act that left six in the family killed, Tert.am reported.

His condition is estimated as stable. The head of Gyumri’s Australian hospital, Ashot Kurghinyan, has told the state news agency Armenspress that the infant was hospitalized in a critical condition, with stab wounds in the chest.

“The infant was found on the mother’s dead body; the perpetrator probably thought he was dead, whereas he had been breathing. The child was hospitalized late; he was in a shock, cold and almost bloodless,” Kurgjinhyan said, adding that he finds the successful surgery a miracle.

“Yes, we can now say that the infant was saved by a miracle, but his condition continues to remain grave but stable. He is surviving a shock and is in the intensive care department switched to an artificial breathing aid. We are hopeful he will be strong enough to overcome it,” he added.

The infant was hospitalized without consciousness in the afternoon.

“I guess the infant was brought to us four or even five hours after the incident. He was in that condition for such a long time; there was a loss of blood and so on. Seeing that the infant’s vital organs are not essentially damaged, we can make positive forecasts, but it is too early to speak with guarantees today,” the doctor added.

Sarkisian Holds Urgent Consultation
President Serzh Sarisian on Monday held urgent consultations with the heads of law-enforcement bodies regarding the heinous murder.

Sarkisian stressed the importance of ascertaining the details of the case, detaining the guilty and holding them accountable.

The leadership of the Russian Military Base in Gyumri is cooperating with the Armenian law-enforcement bodies and is providing practical support to the investigation of the case.

Sarkisian also offered his condolences to the relatives of the victims and said he shared the sorrow and pain of the family.

Russian Embassy issues Statement
The Russian Embassy in Armenia issued a statement Monday about the murders, expressing shock and offering all resources in the ongoing investigation of the crime.

“We are shocked by this terrible crime. We mourn with the Armenian people. We offer our condolences to the families and friends of the victims,” said the statement. “The perpetrators of this vicious crime should be given the most severe punishment.”

“The relevant bodies of the Republic of Armenia and the Russian Federation are taking all necessary measures with a view of ensuring a fair and comprehensive investigation of the incident,” added the statement.

“The investigative groups are coordinating efforts in full compliance with the Agreement of the Presence of the 102nd Russian military base on the territory of the Republic of Armenia,” explained the statement.

On Monday, Armenia’s Defense Minister Seyran Ohanian had a telephone conversation with his Russian counterpart Sergey Shoygu, while Armenia’s Deputy Defense Minister David Tonoyan, spoke to his Russian counterpart.

A special commission will arrive from the Russia to investigate the incident, Spokesman of Armenia’s Defense Ministry Artsrun Hovhannisyan said in a Facebook post.

Armenia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Shavarsh Kocharyan met with the Russian Ambassador to Armenia Ivan Volynkin.

He stressed that the Russian military base in Gyumri was cooperating with the Armenian law-enforcement bodies and provides necessary assistance.

Spontaneous rally in Gyumri
Residents of Gyumri held a spontaneous rally in the city’s central square, calling attention to today’s multiple murder in which a Russian serviceman killed six members of a family.

    This is a terrible tragedy and the beast who carried out this crime should be put away for life or executed.

    And it’s disgusting that we have people who are shamelessly exploiting this tragedy for political purposes.

    If this isn’t an obvious wake-up call for all Armenians that we literally have no friends in this world– that foreign armies in Armenia, especially ones that would happily take money from foreign governments to slaughter citizens like this guy did, isn’t a danger to the nation’s sovereignty and stability, then I don’t know what is. Why is it taking so long for Putin and the Kremlin to condemn this act?

    The answer is simple: we have succeeded in making ourselves so dispensable and so irrelevant as a political entity that even the worth of our civilians’ lives within their own communities have diminished as a result. This is the consequence of Russia-worshipping that the regular Russophile goons are guilty of. I dare anyone in Armenia to put an oversized floral gown on this inbred and parade him on a cage on national television.

    See what will happen, and pat yourselves on the back for helping create this reality.

    A psychopathic killer loose on the civilian population? A deranged army deserter was the curse of an entire family. Tragic, how is this possible ? He should be executed like a wild dog, summarily and without asking any questions about his psychopatholical derangement.

    Compliance status

    We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.

    To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.

    This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.

    Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.

    If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email

    Screen-reader and keyboard navigation

    Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:

    1. Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.

      These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.

    2. Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.

      Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

    3. Animations – epileptic users can stop all running animations with the click of a button. Animations controlled by the interface include videos, GIFs, and CSS flashing transitions.
    4. Content highlighting – users can choose to emphasize important elements such as links and titles. They can also choose to highlight focused or hovered elements only.
    5. Audio muting – users with hearing devices may experience headaches or other issues due to automatic audio playing. This option lets users mute the entire website instantly.

    7. Additional functions – we provide users the option to change cursor color and size, use a printing mode, enable a virtual keyboard, and many other functions.

    Browser and assistive technology compatibility

    We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and for MAC users.

    Notes, comments, and feedback

    Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
