Today the plaintiffs (Orinats Yerkir, New Times and Republic) followed
the model of the Impeachment Bloc and left the Constitutional
Court after the final speeches. According to OYP representative
Artashes Avoyan, the CC had ignored the material submitted by the
oppositionalists which obviously disclosed election frauds.
"The court did not recognize elections of any precinct invalid. The
court administers political justice.
Their action is merely a farce," the OYP representative said.
Gagik Harutyunyan scolded NTP Hrachya Sargsyan for a long political
speech.
"You have come to a legal institution and not a political one,"
Harutyunyan pointed out.
Gagik Harutyunyan urged the sides not to leave the courtroom unless
they heard the speeches.
NWP representative Ruben Torosyan presented new election frauds
in his speech. He also referred to President Kocharians' words. To
remind, Robert Kocahrian announced yesterday that "RoA Parliament is
legitimate". According to Torosyan, Robert Kocharian breached Article
5 of the Constitution by his announcement.
Torosyan also reflected on a number of abnormal phenomena he had
observed during the hearing.
Republic representative Artak Zeynelyan delivered a 28-page
speech. Gagik Harutyunyan liked the speech as it "was based on
legal facts."
The respondent side made a short speech. They called on the court to
turn down the application as the plaintiffs' arguments were groundless
and the fabrications did not affect the election outcome.
The court is to make a decision within three days.
