                  In the beginning of the war his father was taken in the Turkish Army, there has been no more news of him.

                  When the deportation started, he was exiled with his mother and 1 brother in the direction of Meskeni. On the road his mother and brother died of fatigue and hunger, the unhappy boy lived in extreme misery for a period of 2 years.
