YEREVAN, DECEMBER 1, ARMENPRESS: A video has been spread all over the
Turkish media about the Armenian cemetery found between Siirt (Sghert)
and Eruh provinces during construction works. Armenpress reports
referring to Turkish Hurriyet. Bones and images of the Armenian
cemetery are presented in the video made by the Turkish agency.
Resident of the nearest village told the agency that the cemetery had
been found during the road construction works, noting that not far
from the road there was a church so the grave was a Christian. `Our
grandfathers told us that these territories used to belong to
Armenians so we conclude that the cemetery is also Armenian’ he said.

Villagers were concerned about the cemetery which had been opened
there for more than a month and government yet did nothing on this
issue which the villagers considered to be `shame’ and `sin’.
