YEREVAN. - The court trial into the deadly incident that occurred
in Armenian capital city Yerevan's Harsnaqar Restaurant Complex was
adjourned yet again on Wednesday.
Defendant Arman Baghdasaryan asked the court to appoint a new legal
defender, and the court complied with his request and appointed
attorney Vagharshak Gevorgyan as Baghdasaryan's legal defender. In
his turn, the lawyer motioned the court to grant him two weeks to get
familiar with the particulars of the case, but the court granted him
only one week and adjourned the hearing until October 10.

at Harsnaqar Restaurant Complex on June 17, where several military
doctors including Edgar Mikoyan, Arkadi Aghajanyan, Garik Soghomonyan,
Artak Bayadyan and Vahe Avetyan were brutally beaten by security
personnel. And Vahe Avetyan died in hospital on June 29.
Subsequently, a criminal lawsuit was filed and, now, six people are
standing trial.
The Restaurant's owner is ruling Republican Party former MP, Football
Federation of Armenia President, and businessman Ruben Hayrapetyan,
who formally gave up his parliamentary seat in connection with this
incident.
