             He was deported with his family until Samsat where his two elder brothers were killed. His father threw himself into the river. He lost his mother and never heard about her. Krikor went to a Kourdish family and became their servant. He lived three years there but he was ill-treated and fled to Adiaman. There he found some work again in a Kourdish house and he remained four years there.
