Situation in the town of Abovyan has been tense since early morning today, as owners of small stores are concerned over their businesses. The point is that oligarch Gagik Tsarukyan has opened a great mall "Arinj" in the town impeding the trade turnover of small stores.
Since early morning today, the small businessmen have been protesting in the town, which angered Tsarukyan whose guards forced the protesters into cars and took them to an undisclosed location. It is widely rumored that the businessmen have been taken to the village of Arinj to meet with Tsarukyan. The local television reporters also got injuries from Tsarukyan's guards. They have already applied to the Police. Nothing is reported about the businessmen.
