The girl who stabbed a student at Grigor Narekatsi School No. 2 in Ejmiatsin is not a student at the same school. School principal Alvard Hayrapetyan said this, noting that she does not know the girl who carried out the stabbing.
According to the principal, their student had left the school to say goodbye to her friend, and it was during the embrace that the friend struck the school student with a cutting-piercing object.
The Investigative Committee reported that criminal proceedings have been initiated over the infliction of moderate harm to health by a minor.
On November 9, at 11:40 a.m., the Ministry of Internal Affairs received an alert that a girl had been injured near one of the schools in Ejmiatsin. According to preliminary information, during an argument between two friends over personal matters, a 15-year-old girl inflicted a scratch-like injury on her friend with a cutting-piercing object.
The most notable detail of the incident is that the blow was struck during an embrace. This makes it difficult to interpret as the simple consequence of an argument, and it becomes important for the investigation to establish what preceded that moment.
The criminal proceedings were initiated under the article on infliction of moderate harm to health, which suggests that the severity of the injury is still being assessed and the legal classification may change. Both girls are minors, which requires additional caution both in the investigation and in publications.
According to the school principal, the stabber is not a student at the school, so it is important to understand whether the institution had any leverage to prevent the situation. For now, there is no answer to this question.
