YEREVAN, MARCH 22, NOYAN TAPAN. RA Prosecutor General's Office
declined challenge of defence party on case of Mataghis against
Military Prosecutor's Office, which will continue to carry out
preliminary investigation. Noyan Tapan correspondent was informed
about it by RA Prosecutor General's Spokesperson Sona Truzian. She
considered inadmissible attempts of exerting pressure upon preliminary
investigation by rallies and actions of protest. To recap, servicemen
Razmik Sargsian, Musa Serobian and Arayik Zalian are accused of
killing two their fellow-servicemen. They had been sentenced to 15
years' imprisonment by Syunik region's first instance court and to
life imprisonment by Appeal Court for Criminal and Military Cases. As
the Spokesperson explained, in late 2006 RA Cassation Court's Chamber
for Criminal and Military Cases did not justify the above mentioned
persons, moreover, it declined the cassation complaint of the defence
party. The court sustained the petition of representative of legal
successor of aggrieved party on carrying out additional preliminary
investigation. So, the charge brought to the defendants did not
change, punishment of "signature on not leaving the country" was
chosen to them.
