On February 11, the Criminal Court of Yerevan resumed the hearing
on the case of Vardan Jhangiryan, the brother of Armenia's ex Deputy
Prosecutor General Gagik Jhangiryan. The defendant was again unable
to appear before the court because of his poor health.
The defence motioned the court to let Jhangiryan undergo examination
and treatment in Germany. Judge Mnatsakan Martirosyan said the prayer
couldn't be considered without the defendant.
Remind that Vardan Jhangiryan is charged with violence
against a government representative. He suffers from vertebral
tuberculosis. Jhangiryan's health aggravated after receiving a missile
wound during the detention on February 23.
Armenian doctors are unable to help Jhangiryan. The advocates have
filed a few motions to dismiss the case all of them have been denied.
The next hearing is scheduled for 11:00 February 27.
