Turkish treasure hunters ravage Armenian graves

Unknown treasure hunters in Turkey’s Batman province have desecrated Armenian graves, Haberler reported.

Graves belonging to Armenians are said to have appeared under treasure hunters’ target recently. After a dam in the vicinities went out of order, several graves remained under water. But they became visible again after the water disappeared. Profiting by the occasion, the treasure hunters reportedly started dismantling the graves with special digging machines in search of valuable items which they believe might have been buried with the Armenians in the past.
