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.
