YEREVAN, August 12. /ARKA/. The fifth garrison military court that is under the Couth Caucasus Military Court sentenced Valery Permyakov to ten years in high-security prison.

For murdering a family in Grumri, Permyakov is being tried by Armenian judicial institutions.
The first court session in the Gyumri family murder case took place in Gyumri.
The testimony given by Permyakov in the course of preliminary inquiry was read out at the court session, since the accused refused to speak though he pled guilty.

In his words, he took the automatic weapon to defend himself from dogs and to sell it later.
Permyakov said he penetrated into a random house where people were asleep, but they woke up. This frightened him and he shot at them.
He said it has been his own decision to leave the military base.
Major General Vladimir Ustinov, the chief of the 102nd Russian military base where Permyakov stayed for military service, who represented the victim party at the trial, said that before the incident Permyakov was healthy, he maintained friendly relations with fellow servicemen and didn't communicate with local residents.
