Gyumri residents not to get apartments – local NGO

21:19 • 23.07.12

The dreams of those families of Gyumri, which were left without a permanent shelter after the 1988 earthquake, will not come true 24 years after the big disaster, a local NGO has warned.


Shirak Center has said in a statement that a commission tasked with apartment distribution has not recognized the hundreds of homeless families as beneficiaries.


The Tarboshyans, one of the families living in a temporary shelter, are among those unlucky. Under relevant Govvernment decisions, they were denied an apartment on the grounds that the family’s mother has died, and the Police Passport and Visa Departments maintains no residence records about their son, Ashot.
