    VIOLATIONS ARE GROUNDLESS, INVESTIGATION - A WASTE OF TIME

    [04:10 pm] 27 September, 2007

    Hayk Alumyan, Pargev Ohanyan's advocate, the judge of First Instance
    Court of Kentron-Nork Marash Communities, announced at thehearing of
    the RA Justice Board that the Disciplinary Commission carried out the
    investigations with rude violations of the law and examined those cases
    which limitation periods were expired, or examined verdicts which came
    into force legally and were not appealed by Appeal or Cassation Courts.

    Hayk Alumanyan announced that the verdicts of 16 cases among 20
    came into force legally. Thus, the Disciplinary Commission took up
    the competences of Appeal and Cassation Courts and carried out the
    "investigations" with violations.

    One of the members of Disciplinary Commission Tumanyan did not use the
    word "examination" but verification, thus, confessing that they carried
    out not the examination but the verification of judge's activities,
    which the Disciplinary Commission was not competent to do.

    Hayk Alumanyan also announced that the Judicial Department carried out
    briefing of judicial practices and its investigation in compliance
    with law on 27 March - 19 April in 2007, while the verdicts of June
    and July months of 2007 were examined. This, prompted Hayk Alumyan
    to conclude that no violations of law were revealed, and later the
    necessity to hold new examination arouse, in the result of which
    violations were "discovered".

    According to Alumanyan, the Disciplinary Commission carried out the
    investigation without mediation. By the way, Pargev Ohanyan noticed
    in his speech that they shouldn't have taken disciplinary proceedings
    against him, and then carried out examination. First they should
    have discovered breaches, and then demanded to take disciplinary
    proceedings and then only apply to the Court demanding the cases.

    Hayk Alumyan offered to bring all concrete cases in which violations
    were found to Court and prove the guilt of the judge.

    Answering to Alumyan's questions, Arshak Khachatryan, member of
    Disciplinary Commission who read the report of the Commission had
    to admit that they violated the period of "examination. Answering
    to the question what made them write in the observation that the
    judge made obvious and harsh violations, Arshak Khachatryan noted:
    "We wouldn't write, if they weren't obvious".

    Pargev Ohanyan tried to justify himself, reflected on the deficiencies
    of the first four cases. He also reflected on those judicial gaps,
    which allowed judges make various decisions for similar cases.

    He also noticed that the members of the Board were carrying out
    an order and reminded that judges carried responsibility when the
    commission of ethics noticed obvious violations of Judicial Code,
    which was not proved in this case. According to him, he had made only
    one violation of ethics which he preferred not to talk about. Pargev
    Ohanyan refused to talk about the document which was without a
    signature and no date was mentioned on it.

    Hayk Alumyan suggested inviting the employee of the Judicial
    Department, who mediated in taking a disciplinary proceeding against
    Pargev Ohanyan.

    The Court hearing will continue after lunch.
