On Monday, at its closed-door session, Center Nork-Marash
first instance court satisfied the prosecution plea to extend
General-Lieutenant Vagharshak Harutyunyan's pretrial detention for
two months.
Vagharshak Harutyunyan is charged with attempting a coup, making
seditious calls and insulting the authorities and can face up to 19
years in jail if convicted.
The protest of Harutyunyan's attorney Robert Grigoryan hasn't been
heard in a clear breach of the law. The court made its Monday's
decision without considering the protest, because the accused "can
be dangerous if released."
No exact wrongdoing is pointed out by the prosecution side so far. Only
the counts that Harutyunyan is charged with are indicated.
