CASE ON TEGHUT WAS POSTPONED
http://a1plus.am/en/social/2010/07/30/teghut
The RA Court of Appeals only took a few minutes to examine the
appeal filed by "Ecodar" NGO's appeal against the Administrative
Court. The environmental organization had filed an appeal to the
administrative court in order for the latter to recognize invalid a
number of agreements and documents which allow the exploitation of
Teghut's copper-molybdenum pit. The court denied the appeal, saying
that the organization has no right to file an appeal on exploitation
of Teghut mine and the appeal was presented to the Court of Appeals.
The court postponed the session for a while without any explanation.
"Ecodar" NGO's advocate Hayk Alumyan tried to find out the reason
from the court, but it was useless and the court told him to leave
the courtroom.
"The Court of Appeals apparently ruled to postpone the case without
any explanation and that is characteristic of the Court of Appeals.
This is not within the limits of the law," Hayk Alumyan told "A1+". He
added that the postponement is due to the fact that the court is
not familiar with the case. "Today the Court of Appeals announced
that it was studying the case before the trial, but made a serious
mistake when naming the sides. For instance, "Ecodar" became "Ecodor",
"Armenian Copper Program" became "Armenian Copper Progress" and it
was clear that the court had not studied the case well.
Head of "Ecodar" NGO Hrair Savzyan told "A1+" that one of the possible
reasons for postponement is the action organized by the organization
two days ago. He assured that their actions will be ongoing. "We will
do everything possible to not let them. We have let them go too far."
