Residents of Teghout demand that the mining company provide them with work, 24 August 2020
...[A]bout a hundred residents of Teghout gathered near the first checkpoint of Teghut CJSC, demanding either the return of their lands to them, or to provide them with work in the company operating the Teghut field. The road leading to the company premises remained blocked for almost two hours.
People also demand that pensioners living in Teghut and Shnogh be paid an allowance of 40 thousand drams for polluting the environment and causing harm to their farms, as they do for residents of the community adjacent to the Artsvanik tailings dump in the Syunik region.
The mayor Shnokha David Gumashyan and Tumanyan district police chief Artak Gyurjanyan are at the site. The latter called on those gathered to unblock the road. He also said that the company did not yet have any job vacancies.
