    JHANGIRIAN ATTENDS COURT SITTING
    [02:15 pm] 25 July, 2008

    On July 25 Armenia's Administrative Court hears the case of ex Deputy
    Prosecutor General Gagik Jhangirian. He demands to revoke Decrees N
    NH-28-A ¨ N NH -29-A signed by the RoA President on February
    23, 2008. Under the disputed decrees Jhangirian was relieved of the
    post and reduced to the rank.

    The court sitting is presided over by Justice Artsrun Mirzoyan. Just
    at the beginning of the sitting Artsrun Mirzoyan banned shooting and
    A1+'s cameraman was invited out. The decision made Jhangirian believe
    that the sitting would be held in the same distorted way and the court
    will bring in an adverse verdict.

    The claimant's petitions were rejected one after another. The
    respondent side, the Head of the President's Personnel Hovik
    Abrahamian, had sent a written-letter to Artsrun Mirzoyan and the
    claimant earlier and didn't attend the court sitting.

    Gagik Jhangirian petitioned to involve and question Prosecutor General
    Aghvan Hovsepian as a witness but the petition was
    rejected. Presently, the claimant's advocates are going to demand the
    judge's resignation.

    Meantime, people grouped in the corridor demand an urgent release of
    Gagik Jhangirian.
