Dereci and Ellialti were in Washington to greet Erdogan and joined Erdogan\u2019s army of thugs when they brazenly attacked demonstrators.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese attacks were not only a direct insult to the protesters and their political convictions but also an attack on our western values of freedom, democracy, and justice,\u201d said Shahen Mirakian, President of the ANCC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe fact that these two men have not yet been arrested, simply adds insults to injury, and we find it strongly unacceptable for our authorities to remain silent and allow alleged hate crimes to remain unpunished\u201d added Mirakian.<\/p>\n<p>Many of the men involved in the brawl had arrest warrants issued in their name but not all have been brought to justice by law enforcement, including Dereci and Ellialti. Reports indicate that no Canadian law enforcement agency has been contacted regarding the case of the two men.<\/p>\n<p>While investigations are still underway and Dereci and Ellialti\u2019s whereabouts are unknown, some information revealed by the Toronto Star suggests that the two men are now outside of Canada, fleeing prosecution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe call upon our government to work closely with law enforcement agencies in the United States and take all steps necessary to bring these men to justice\u201d concluded Mirakian.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Armenian National Committee of Canada<br \/>\nComit\u00e9 National Arm\u00e9nien du Canada<br \/>\nTel.\/T\u00e9l.
