On February 8, Court of First Instance of Kentron and Nubarashen
communities was to hold hearing on Gagik Shamshyan's case but it
was canceled because of the absence of two witnesses. The trail was
postponed till February 12..
Reminder: under Article 178 of the Electoral Code Gagik Shamshyan was
accused of "embezzlement and privatization of large-scale property
via deceit and breach of confidence".
The plaintiff Arthur Petrosyan claims that Gagik Shamshyan embezzled
500 USD in 1998. Shamshyan promised to help him enter a university but
in Petrosyan's words he couldn't enter as "he failed the exams". Photo
correspondent of newspapers "Aravot" and "Forth Power" Gagik Shamshyan
informed us that he really took money from Petrosyan, but "he gave
it to German Vardapetyan, rector of "Vardanants" University.
"I suggested the court to clear up whether Arthur Petrosyan was
really a student of that university and had a student's card", says
Gagik Shamshyan.
Zariouhi Postanjyan, Shamshyan's advocate says, "I wonder why Arthur
Petrosyan remembered about the court only today. He only repeats,
"I have decided to appeal now as I don't want to be cheated".
To note, in the August of 2006, Gagik Shamshyan's informed the
police station of Erebouni and Nubarashen that he had been subjected
to violence. He assumes that the organizers and initiators of the
violence were the relatives and friends of Mher Hovhannisyan, district
head of the community.
