Armen’s father Andranik Sahakian, incidentally, a retired police officer has no doubt that the murder of his son was in fact due to his nationality. “I am confident that my son was killed simply because he is Armenian.”
It’s noteworthy that murder was committed on the day of the commemoration protest dedicated to Spartak FC fan Yegor Sidorov. While family and friends hope that law enforcement will find the perpetrators of Armen’s murder, this is the second tragedy in the Sahakian family. Several years ago Armen’s grandfather was murdered near their house. The motive and perpetrators’ of that murder have yet to be uncovered, and relatives believe that murder was also due to ethnicity.
