The verdicts of the judge Levon Arazyan regarding the abuse cases of
Anik Davtyan and Tsovinar Nazaryan are announced. According to the
verdict of Anik Davtyan, naming the voter a `tomfool, gutter, monkey,
impudent, and so on'... pursued the purpose of providing normal course
of elections.' To remind you that 75-year-old pensioner Anik Davtyan
and the journalist, member of `Law Europe' observation group Tsovinar
Nazaryan requested the court to oblige Tigran Virabyan to publicly
apologize for offending phrases addressed to them, and that this
action is videorecorded and posted on YouTube website. Aravot.am, in
the conversation with Ts. Nazaryan, inquired how is sheassessing the
wording of the verdict, she said,- `It is a ridiculous decision,
because to abuse legal institutions of Armenia like this to make a
compatriot, tribal resolution, is just a direct insult to Armenia. By
the decision of the judge, it turns out that the chairmen of electoral
commission may offend the voters with all those words. I would not be
surprised if another decision is made, pursuant to which from now on
it is possible to attack the voters with an ax, as it is necessary to
protect the electoral process. During the election, Tigran Virabyan
was raising loud noise, calling the chair of precinct committee,
making a mess; the chair was joining the noise, and in the election
process was stopped.
In doing so, they were even disrupting the electoral process and not
providing unobstructed process.' We inquired as to what was the result
of having such a judgment. Ts. Nazaryan replied,- `It is not news that
the judicial system is not only independent, but rather serves the
interests of the Republican Party's vicious regime. Therefore, we can
say that the judiciary is corrupt, and is subject to one party,
instead of servicing the interests of the people and the public. This
is simply a disgrace. We will definitely appeal to the appellate
court, and it is not going to have the basis and reasons for not
considering the cancellation of the first instance decision.
