YEREVAN, OCTOBER 30, NOYAN TAPAN. Under the decision of the general
jurisdiction court of Yerevan's Kentron and Nork-Marash communities,
the reserve of RA National Assembly deputies Myasnik Malkhasian and
Hakob Hakobian arrested on the March 1 case has been prolonged by
two months.
According to Radio Liberty, the preliminary investigation on the
part of the other five defendants is over, and the defence party is
getting acquainted with the materials of the criminal case.
According to Hovik Arsenian, the defender of interests of Alexander
Arzumanian, Sasun Mikayelian, and Myasnik Malkhasian, the Special
Investigation Service informed the defence party that the period
of getting acquainted with the materials of the case is limited to
October 31. However, that time is not enough to completely getting
familiarized with the materials of the case.
According to Melania Arustamian, the defender of interests of National
Assembly deputy Hakob Hakobian, though the end of the preliminary
investigation has been announced on September 4, the materials of
the criminal case were provided to the defence party from September
11 and, moreover, not at once.
If the lawyers' objections and mediations to prolong the term are
not met, they will introduce a complaint against the decision made
by the preliminary investigation body to the Prosecutor General, as
the right of the defence party is violated. First of all the lawyers
will introduce a mediation to stop the criminal prosecution, to quash
the examination asserting that the proves involved in the case are
forged. According to them, there will be also other mediations, and
to motivate them and to introduce facts requires rather hard work,
which will take at least a month.
