15:19 - 10.11.13
Actor Vardan Petrosyan, who was involved in the October 20 deadly
crash on the Yeghvard-Yerevan highway, has been formally charged in
connection with the accident.
In an interview with Tert.am, the actor's lawyer Nikolay Baghdasaryan
said that the investigator presented the legal grounds for arresting
Vardan Petrosyan to the court.
`In the course of the court meeting, the judge accepted only one
argument - a French passport. During the court meeting, Mr Petrosyan
handed his passport to the investigator,' he said.
After spending four hours in the retiring room the judge read out the
legal ground for Mr Petrosyan's arrest `in four lines.' `
`But the Criminal Code does not envisage such legal grounds for
arresting a person,' Mr Baghdasaryan said.
