Although he began to be friends with Milena, according to David, she again tried to restore relations. She wanted to have a relationship/be friends with me, I told her to go and have a relationship with your friend. I kept it distance with her, but I did not want to be rude to her because she helped to get a job, I was trying to get out of favor,” answering the Lawyer’s questions Tamrazyan said, adding that later Milena learned about Mariam’s steps, as a result fight occurred between two girls.
“On 26 April, 2013 a dispute occurred between them, said David, that day Mariam called me, Milena saw that and asked, who is calling me and said, Let’s get acquainted and talk to her. That day we met, I introduced Milena to Mariam as my wife, and because, Milena, as usual, was drunk, fight occurred and Milena told Mariam “Don’t you understand that you must not call my boyfriend and threw a napkin at her. We were in the restaurant, they smashed all the glasses, Milena hit the bottle on Mariam’s head, and they threw a tray on each other. Because of only Milena’s jealousy. “
