/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Akhaltsikhe district court has found United
Javakhk Democratic Alliance leader Vahagn Chakhalyan guilty at all
points and sentenced him to 10 years in prison in compliance with
article 236.1 (purchase and possession of arms), article 225.2
(participation in disorders), article 226 (organization of public
disorders), article 353.2 (resistance to police officer or public
agent) and article 239.2b (hooliganism).
At that, the verdict doesn't envisage substitution of part of the
term by a fine.
The public prosecutor demanded 14-year imprisonment and 18 000 lari
fine ($10,650) for Vahagn Chakhalyan, 4-year imprisonment and 6000
lari fine ($3550) for Ruben Chakhalyan and 3-year suspended sentence
and 3000 lari fine ($1750) for Armen Chakhalyan.
The court found Ruben Chakhalyan guilty under article 236.1 (purchase
and possession of arms) and article 225.2 (participation in disorders)
and imposed to 5,000 lari ($3000) on him.
Armen Chakhalyan will have to pay a 2,000 lari ($1,200) fine under
article 236.1 (purchase and possession of arms).
Chakhalyans are going to appeal the verdict in the court of superior
jurisdiction and European Court of Human Rights.
Yerkir Union has labeled the verdicts as a shameful outcome of the
legal procedure.
