HOMES ARE CRAWLING: NOBODY REALLY CARES ANYWAY

Regions


Some 40 inhabitants of Kapan’s Railroaders’ alley live in a “zone of landslides.” The inhabitants fully realise the danger of the place but they have no alternative.


Ashot Ohanjanyan’s house may collapse at any point. Cracks double on the walls every day. He has fastened the rear part of the house with a metal rope so that the wall will not come down.


Syunik’s Marzpetaran and City Hall have already been informed of the problem but, as they say, “things haven't got forward an inch.” People are already sick and tired and say their complaints are senseless.


The earth keeps crawling. Even the passing cars shake the buildings. The inhabitants hope the authorities will take up their calls one day. They think only a fatal accident will call public attention.
