Jirayr Sefilian, a former commander of Shushi special battalion and a member of the Founding Parliament, wrote on his Facebook that he will talk to journalists about the Berdzor incident in the second of the week. “Dear compatriots, I am already in good health but I need several days for full recovery. Soon I shall return to my normal routine and speak to media representatives in the second half of the week. I am grateful to you for the moral support,” he said. At least a dozen participants of an automobile rally organised by the Founding Parliament, a successor of the initiative called Pre-Parliament pressure group, were injured on Jan. 31 during an automobile march organized by the movement to the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic. Police in Karabakh stopped them on the way, banning their entry to the country. The group members were beaten up by the police, four dozen vehicles were turned away  and the participants of the automobile march could not get into Karabakh.  Jirayr Sefilian and other veterans of the Karabakh were among the injured.
