Freedom fighter was operated on and then sued in court (video)
Freedom fighter Mkrtich Sukiasyan has appeared in court. The case was filed by University Hospital No 1, which claims that the 53-year-old citizen of Armavir city has not paid them for the heart surgery performed in 2012. “I did not say that I shall not pay the money. I simply cannot afford the sum now. I am ready to give them everything, even my clothes,” says Mkrtich Sukiasyan. The surgery cost AMD 2 560,000, 900 000 of which was paid by the Ministry of Defence after the operation. In December 2012, the freedom fighter wrote a letter to the hospital administration requesting them to give him six months to pay the remaining money. However, the freedom fighter has been unable to keep his promise in two years. As a result, representatives of the Judicial Acts Compulsory Enforcement Service visited his house but left empty-handed as they could not find anything valuable there.
