Press speaker for the RA Cassation Court released information regarding
the reasons behind the postponement of the "Case of Seven".
According to the press release, the court ruled a judicial sanction
against the indicted by removing them from the courtroom "guided by
articles 42, 314 and 314.1 of the RA Criminal Court Code and accepting
as a basis the fact that during the trial on 12 February of 2009,
the culprits who were standing up did not obey the judge after being
ordered to sit down."

without permission, did not obey the judge's orders to not speak or
make statements without permission. Afterwards, Shant Harutyunyan

Arzumanyan, Sasun Mikayelyan, Hakob Hakobyan, Grigor Voskerchyan
and Suren Sirunyan started making statements, screaming and making
noise without the judge's permission and showed disrespect towards
the court and impeded the trial," as stated in the release.
