Los-Angeles launched hearings on an American-Armenian police officer
case, who claimed he had faced ethnic slurs and other forms of
harassment by his colleagues.

Detective Steve Karagiosian’s attorney said that his client had faced
ethnic slurs by six officers, The Burbank Leaderreports.

One of the officers Aaron Kendrick was accused of calling Armenians
`towel heads’.

Besides, Kendrick told the Armenian officer as if he was hired and
promoted only because he was Armenian.

The Armenian officer was promoted and even was named Officer of the
Year in 2007.
