The Armenian authorities, namely, the court marshal service, have
banned dissemination of the pro-opposition Chorrord Ishkhanutyun
(The Forth Power) paper starting on 9 November, the pro-opposition
Haykakan Zhamanak daily said on 10 November.
Previously a court of law in Armenia's capital Yerevan banned the
publication of the daily by its then publishing company, Koghmnaki
Andzants M, and any other companies on 5 November. Even earlier,
the court had banned the publication of the paper by Ogostos company,
which is the founder of Chorrord Ishkhanutyun, Haykakan Zhamanak said
in a separate report on 6 November. Gind printing house, which was
printing the paper, had sued Ogostos company, demanding that the court
should both arrest the property of the company and stop publication
of the Chorrord Ishkhanutyun paper due to the company's debts.
The Aravot daily reported earlier that Gind, bypassing the agreement
signed between Ogostos company and the printing house, unilaterally
and secretly from the paper decided to raise the tariff for printing
Chorrord Ishkhanutyun paper. The Chorrord Ishkhanutyun paper is
now printed under the name "Chorrord Inknishkhanutyun ("The Fourth
Autocracy") and can be bought from newsstands starting from today,
Haykakan Zhamanak said in its 10 November report. The next court
hearing will be held on 11 November, according to an earlier report
by Haykakan Zhamanak.
