    479 LAWSUITS APPLIED FROM ARMENIA TO EUROPEAN COURT ON HUMAN RIGHTS AS OF SEPTEMBER 2007

    ArmInfo Agency, Armenia
    Oct 4 2007

    ArmInfo. 479 lawsuits applied from Armenia to European Court on human
    rights for 4 years as of September 2007, the judge on human rights
    which represents Armenia in the European Court, Alvina Gyulumyan told
    journalists today. To recall, Gyulumyan has been recently reelected
    at the post for the next 6 years.

    She also added that 479 may not be considered a final figure as 617
    Azerbaijanis applied to the European Court and insisted that their
    rights had been broken by the Armenian government, because as a
    result of the Karabakh conflict they were forced to leave places of
    their permanent residence. The European Court has already declined
    to investigate 214 out of 617 lawsuits. At present the destiny of
    the rest 314 lawsuits has not been resolved yet, Gyulumyan said.

    She also said that in 2007 Strasbourg received 32 complaints from
    Armenia. As for Armenian TV company which was deprived of TV air in
    2002 and applied to the European Court on human rights, Gyulumyan
    said it is not clear yet if the lawsuit will be investigated by the
    EC or not.
