Radio Liberty reports that coordinator of legal support service Armen Khachatryan says that EU human rights commissioner Thomas Hammerberg has the opportunity to get acquainted to the 7 Criminal Case and the corresponding conclusions.
The latter says that the group of lawyers of the mentioned 7 accused people has sent a letter to Thomas Hammerberg informing the main shortcomings and violations of the legal conclusions of the mentioned criminal case. “The letter also writes about the fact that judge Martirosyan has set a 9 days period for legal analysis,” says A. Khachatryan. According to him, the final conclusion was signed by prosecutor of the general prosecutor’s office Koryun Piloyan unlike the assurances of the lawyers that there is no document in the case, which would serve a ground for Koryun Piloyan to sign on the mentioned document. The authors of the letter also write that there are no legal grounds in the case, which would allow to send that case to the court. Khachatryan has cited a part from the letter, which concerns the accusation for participating in a mass disorder and shooting at policemen (but in fact Felix Gevorgyan did not shoot at policemen but in the air). “Felix Gevorgyan’s case is still in court, there have been 2-3 sessions so far, but the court considers that the accusation is a proven fact already,” he says. The latter also says that there are new proofs that Felix Gevorgyan got the mentioned pistol in June 2008, i.e. three months after the mentioned events. “And this fact is introduced in the accusation conclusion as a proof,” he said. To note, in November the EU human rights commissioner announced in Yerevan that he would attentively follow the process of court trial of the mentioned seven people. In the same period as a result of meetings with the president, general prosecutor and accused citizens Hammerberg said that he did not see any substantiated justifications so far, based on which the independent court could accuse or imprison the mentioned seven people for usurpation of power. Hammerberg will publish his final opinion about the court trial after reading the final resolution of the court.
