Today, on 28 April, His Holiness Catholicos Aram I of the Holy See of Cilicia has applied to the Constitutional court of Turkey claiming to return the Sis Catholicosate, which belonged to the Armenian Kingdom of Cilikia. Iravaban.net learned this from the official website of the Holy See of Cilicia.
“On the occasion of 100th commemoration of the Armenian Genocide and with prospective to give a more practical expression to our claim, His Holiness Catholicos Aram I of the Holy See of Cilicia often said in his messages about the necessity to emphasis of the compensation imperative. In this regard, the return of Sis Catholicosate and further the return of national and church estates may be an important step in restoration of the violated rights of our people. Therefore Cilicia Catholicosate decided to apply to the Constitutional Court of Turkey,” he said.
