POLITICIANS ATTEND PROTEST MARCH IN SUPPORT OF LOCAL DAILY
12:56 pm | January 30, 2013 | Politics
The employees of Zhoghovord daily accompanied by journalists and
politicians are presently heading for the Court of General Jurisdiction
of Kentron and Nork-Marash administrative districts. They are going
to hand over a petition with a demand to lift the 3 Million AMD freeze
from the newspaper's property.
Among the participants of the protest march are Sasun Mikaelyan,
Petros Makeyan, Garnik Isagulyan and many others.
The freeze stems from a January 19 slander suit filed by Khachik
Khachatryan, owner of Yerevan Poultry Factory and president of X
Group. The latter argues that the paper smeared his good name and the
reputation of the factory in a September 2012 article, claiming that
the Ministry of Agriculture's Food Safety Inspectorate had fined the
company for selling eggs past their due date.
The newspaper says that the freeze might prevent its further operation.
