TBILISI, APRIL 13, ARMENPRESS:
A 41 year-old ethnic Armenian, Amiran Mkhitarian, a resident of Georgia's capital city Tbilisi, killed himself yesterday, Rustavi-2 TV channel reported. It said abject poverty was the reason that drove the man to committing a suicide.

The TV said the man killed himself after failing to find money to buy febrifuge medicine for his five year child.

Neighbors said the family fell into poverty last year after the man was sacked. He left behind his wife and three children.
