            Together with other Armenian Bitlis people, his parents, sister and brother were deported to the region of Diarbekir. Near El-Medine, the caravan was attacked by the Turks and Kurds and most of these unfortunate people were massacred. Ghazar has been present, this horrible view made him flee, he ran and ran without knowing where he was running to. He came back to a Bitlis village but he could find no Armenians there. However, a Kurd who knew his father took him to his house and kept him there as his servant. During the Kurdish-Turkish troubles, his master was sent to Diarbekir and his sons to Konia on exil. Of course Ghazar could not remain alone there. He went to Midiat where he found some work until his recent flight. Once in Hassitshe our agent sent him further on to Aleppo.
