    COURT TO EXAMINE TELEPHONE RECORDING IN NEWS.AM SLANDER TRIAL TATEVIK SHALJYAN

    hetq
    14:59, October 9, 2012

    The case of the slander suit brought by the "Arrhythmology Cardiology
    Center of Armenia against the news.am website resumed today at
    the Yerevan Ajapnyak and Davtashen District Court, Judge Margarita
    Hartenyan presiding.

    The news website has published an article about one of the Center's
    patients, Hovhannes Katrdjyan who had sued the hospital for medical
    malfeasance.

    At today's trial, Katrdjyan took the stand and testified that news.am
    had republished his exact words about his experience at the hospital
    and with the doctors.

    The patient believes that the hospital sought to make money from his
    heart condition.

    Mourat Asryan, attorney for the plaintiff, requested that the court
    examine a telephone recording between the news.am reporter and former
    hospital director Smbat Jamalyan.

    The trial was recessed until October 26 since the court lacked the
    necessary equipment to examine the recording.
