The slander trial against diaspora investor Edmond Khoutian got
underway yesterday at Yerevan's Kentron and Nork Marash Administrative

an interview with Haykakan Zhamansk reporter Vahagn Hovakimyan that
appeared as an article entitled "The Story of a Cheated Diaspora
Armenian" on February 2, 2012.

themselves with the case material.
