NEW JUSTICE COMPOUND INAUGURATED IN YEREVAN
YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 23, ARMENPRESS: A five-storey compound that will
house a court of review and Armenian economic court was inaugurated
today. The compound has 23 court rooms and six pre-trial rooms for
suspects. The building was built as part of an extensive reform of
Armenian judiciary, funded by a World Bank credit. Some $1.418
million were spent to build the new compound.
It conforms to all internationally accepted standards and is
divided into three security zones: an open zone for public, a
restricted zone for judges and court personnel and a prohibited zone
for suspects and indicted persons.
Speaking at the ceremony justice minister David Harutunian said:
"Today the Armenian society has the right to fair justice
administration and the new compound is a component to ensure the
independence of judiciary from executive power and there is a
political will to do it."
World Bank Resident Representatives, Roger Robinson, said the
compound is the biggest building in Armenia, build on the Bank's
funds. "The main objective of the judiciary reform is to make it
transparent and effective," he said.
