Advocate Seda Safaryan has filed a motion to the Cassation Court
to dissolve the case of the former head of the Interior Ministry
Detention Department Mushegh Saghatelyan. "Mushegh Saghatelyan is
innocent. We demand that the Cassation Court close the case and stop
persecution against Saghatelyan," says Seda Safaryan.
Remind that on October 23 Yerevan's Criminal Court announced
a verdict of sentencing Mushegh Saghatelyan to five years'
imprisonment. Saghatelyan was charged under Article 316 of the Criminal
Code (violence against a government representative) and Article 235
(acquisition and transportation of illegal weapon). He was also fined
900.000 drams.
Note that the Court of Appeals had left the decision of the Criminal
Court unchanged.
