The Trchkan Civil Initiative is demanding that RA Chief of Police Vladimir Gasparyan launch an investigation into the ongoing desecration and pilferage of the "Stone Symphony" cliffs in the Garni gorge.
Along the sides of the gorge are cliff walls of well preserved basalt columns, carved out by the Goght River. This portion of the Garni Gorge is typically referred to as the “Symphony of Stones”.
Activists say they have been raising the alarm regarding the situation for over one month.
The civic group also calls on the RA Ministry of the Environment to include the natural landmark in its list of "Specially Protected Natural Sites".
