Lusineh Sahakyan and Yervant Varosyan, the lawyers for Saribek
Sukiasyan, today requested that the Chamber of Advocates sit in
session to hear their side of the story regarding charges brought
against their client.
Saribek Sukiasyan, brother of former MP Khachatur Sukiasyan, has
been charged with threatening the life of Gor Davtyan to force him
to sell 41% of "Byuregh" company shares. Yerevan police Chief Nerses
Nersisyan has publicly stated that on February 12 that received an
urgent call from Davtyan saying that his life was in danger at the
offices of Sil Group. Nazaryan says that when police responded they
found Saribek Sukiasyan, Davtyan and Artashes Stepanyan, Director of
the Ayrarat Marketplace, in the Sil Office, along with documents that
Davtyan was forced to sign.
Today, attorney Sahakyan, said that no such papers were ever seized
by police and that they handed over videotapes from the Sil office
showing Davtyan calmly leaving the building.
"Put another way, Police Chief Nazaryan presented information to the
public that can be described as nothing less than false. Either the
Yerevan police chief is deceiving the pre-trial investigative unit or
else he knows what happened and is hoodwinking the public. In either
case, the chief is out of line on this," said Mrs. Sahakyan.
The attorney said that the defense hadn't presented all their
evidence because the investigative unit will manufacture evidence to
the contrary.
Lusineh Sahakyan said that on February 11, Gor Davtyan had telephoned
attorney Ara Zohrabyan, telling the lawyer that he had been threatened
by Ruben Hayrapetyan, a Member of Parliament and president of the
RoA Football Federation.
Davtyan said that he had been escorted to a security center, including
the Prosecutor's Office and had been coerced into selling Byuregh
stock to Hayrapetyan,
Attorney Sahakyan added that Davtyan refused to comply and called
Zohrabyan, asking that he arrange a meeting with Sukiasyan and that
he expected the latter's assistance. Sukiasyan is said to have met
with Davtyan. During the meeting, Davtyan asks that Sukiasyan help
him with certain legal documents so that he could refuse the stock
sale to Hayrapetyan.
Attorney Sahakyan stated that Zohrabyan drafted a letter to Hayrapetyan
which pointed out certain legal issues that prevented Davtyan from
selling his stock.
Sukiasyan's lawyers admit that Davtyan is being used as a patsy in
the affair which actually seeks to deprive their client's family of
the Byuregh company as well
Readers will remember that Bjni, the mineral water company, was seized
from Sukiasyan on non-payment of tax charges. The company now belongs
to Ruben Hayrapetyan.
