Roads from Charentsavan to Hrazdan closed down
The owners of the routes of minibuses traveling from Charentsavan to Yerevan have collected drivers' licenses and have told them to go home.
"A1+"'s correspondent in Charentsavan reports that police officers have been going around the streets of Hrazdan and Charentsavan since morning.
The Vanatur district of Hrazdan is strictly under control.
Our correspondent tried to find out from police officers the reason behind this unprecedented control, and one of the officers said they were simply fulfilling an instruction.
"A1+"'s correspondent says people are in fear and prefer not to go out to the streets.
The situation is especially tense in the mornings. Those rushing to work and school can't leave the city.
The dispatcher at the Hrazdan car station told "A1+" that no bus had left the city for five days.
"My wife is pregnant. I would go to the rallies, but there are rumors that the rally will be dispersed. If I go, I will witness what happened on March 1, 2008. How can I leave my family behind?" a citizen of Charentsavan told "A1+" and wished to remain anonymous.
Even if those wishing to go to Yerevan for personal matters manage to leave the residences, they are stopped and sent back to Abovyan.
The minibus drivers mention that they can't even drive their own cars since their driver licenses have been confiscated.
"We haven't been able to work for several days now," a driver of the minibus coming from Hrazdan to Yerevan told "A1+".
