JHANGIRIAN'S CLAIM DENIED
[02:32 pm] 08 May, 2008
Minutes ago the RA Criminal Court of Appeal denied
Former Deputy Prosecutor General Gagik Jhangirian's
claim, keeping on the April 18 resolution of Kentron
and Nork-Marash General Jurisdiction Court.
The General Jurisdiction Court had prolonged Gagik
Jhangirian's preliminary term of detention till June
24.
The verdict was announced by the Criminal Court of
Appeal in a closed session, with dozens of citizens
waiting in front of the court building.
The picket participants raised Gagik Jhangirian's
photos above their heads shouting: `Liberty to Gagik',
`Gagik, we are on your side'. They did not yield to
the policemen's orders to keep back from the court
building. `We can stand wherever we like', opposed the
women.
`They detained Gagik Jhangirian when he began speaking
of October 27 events. It was not evidently in the
interests of the authorities', assured Ms. Aida, who
claimed that she knew Jhangirian quite well.
`He has always been with his people', proclaimed the
participants and noticing that they are being
photographed, added: `Over 1 million advocates are on
Levon Ter-Petrossian's side. You can't arrest all of
them anyway'
