ARMAN BABAJANYAN'S VERDICT TO BE BROUGHT ON DECEMBER
11
[06:16 pm] 30 November, 2006
`This is a mere criminal case and it mustn't be given
political colouring', announced Janna Kodikyan in her
speech in connection with the case of Arman
Babajanyan, editor of `Jamanak Yerevan' newspaper in
the RA Cassation Court on Criminal and Marshal Issues.
She claims that Mr. Babajanyan is accused of
embezzlement rather than of malfunction of his
journalistic duties. The plaintiff claimed to send Mr.
Babajanyan to 4, 6-year imprisonment.
The defender submitted a few mediations but only one
of them was fully endorsed; others were either
rejected or endorsed partially. The mediation
comprised references on Arman Babajanyan's
personality.
The defender asked the court for additional time. The
court supported the mediation and cancelled the court
sitting till December 11.
Reminder; Arman Babajanyan was arrested on June 26. He
is accused of avoiding obligatory military service,
document forgery and embezzlement. Arman Babajanyan
was sentenced to 4-year imprisonment under the
decision of the Court of First Instance.
By the way, the lawyers presented a packet sent from
Los Angeles. The packet includes an announcement
signed by 6000 U.S. citizens according to which Arman
Babajanyan is accused of malfunction of his
journalistic duties. `It sounds a bit clumsy and
strange. Why should 6000 citizens sign in protection
of Arman Babajanyan? Is he an important figure?'
wondered Mrs. Kodikyan.
