    YEREVAN. - Defendant Serob Bozoyan had not appeared to the first
    court session with respect to the balloon explosion in Armenia's
    capital city Yerevan, since he was uninformed of the court hearing,
    Bozoyan himself told Haykakan Zhamanak daily.

    "According to him, there was no one in their home when the postman
    had brought the court summons, and the neighbor had said the Bozoyan
    family no longer lived in that home.

    'We're rarely at home, and the neighbor thought we had moved, he
    thought that we already had sold the house,' Serob said, and added
    that he really is getting ready to sell the apartment.

    Bozoyan did not respond to our reporter's question [as to whether]
    the reason is financial problems. He also said he definitely will
    attend the court hearing on [Friday] September 14.

    To note, the first court session into the 'balloon' case was adjourned
    [on August 30] since the defendant was absent,' Haykakan Zhamanak
    writes.

    As Armenian News-NEWS.am informed earlier, a tragedy occurred during
    the ruling Republican Party of Armenia's (RPA) parliamentary election
    campaign rally and concert held at Yerevan's Republic Square on May 4.

    Hundreds of balloons filled with gas exploded and started to burn.

    Subsequently, the balloons' melted rubber fell on the event
    participants. Those near the stage were affected the most, and 154
    people were injured.

    Subsequently, German plastic surgeon Adrian Daigler, who was invited
    to Armenia upon the instruction of President and RPA leader Serzh
    Sargsyan, operated on nine patients who suffered injuries from the
    balloon blast. And the last patient was discharged on July 2.

    Serob Bozoyan, who had filled these balloons, is charged with
    manufacturing and selling products not meeting safety regulations
    and causing harm to two or more people.
