    A Yerevan court has accepted to hear the slander suit of Anoushavan
    Nikoghosyan, who ran for parliament in the May election, against the
    news site slaq.am.

    Nikoghosyan claims that slaq.am maligned his good name and reputation
    in a May 4 article alleging that the reason he entered the race
    in Election District 32 against Republican Party candidate Karen
    Karapetyan was purely based on commercial interests.

    The article alleged that Karapetyan had turned down Nikoghosyan's
    request for help in obtaining a minivan commuter route and that
    Nikoghosyan took this as a personal insult.

    Nikoghosyan is demanding a retraction of the allegations and 3 million
    in compensatory damages.

    The trial will get underway on July 31.
