Tigran Arakelian will remain in custody for another two months despite
serious health problems.
Armenia's Appellate Court today rejected Advocate Varduhi Elbakian's
appeal against a Yerevan court's decision to keep Tigran Arakelian
in detention for another two months.
The Court also denied the advocate's motion to let out the defendant
on bail.
Tigran Arakelian is in a grave health condition after being diagnosed
with subatrofiya of the left eye nerve.
Tigran Arakelian was detained on July 5, 2009, after an incident with
a group of plainclothes police officers in downtown Yerevan on July
1 while publicizing about an opposition rally to be held the next day.
Tigran Arakelian was charged with Article 258 of the Criminal Code
(hooliganism) but Investigator Hrachya Sargsian reviewed the charge and
re-qualified it with Article 316 (violence against a state official)
which foresees 5-10 years in prison.
