    THIRD LAWSUIT FILED AGAINST ARMENIAN DAILY IN OCTOBER

    Tert.am
    22:31 17.10.11

    A scientific-research center has lodged a complaint against the
    Armenian daily Zhoghovurd (People) - the third such case launched
    against the paper in October.

    Benik Harutyunyan, Director of Spa Treatment and Physical Medicine
    Research Centre of the Republic of Armenia, demands 2 million Armenian
    drams (approx. $5330) in moral compensation for an article he claims
    discredits him.

    Harutyunyan also demands 244,000 drams (approx. $650) to cover lawyer
    and court services.

    In the article, Nune Serobyan, a US citizen and a business partner
    of Benik Harutyunyan, accused him of not returning around $218,000
    of her private money used in the joint business.

    Two other lawsuits against Zhoghovurd are pending trial.

    The daily is facing a total of 5,244,000 drams (approx. $14,180)
    in compensation if it loses the case in all the three trials.
