while speaking about reports on Amal Clooney's participation in the
court hearings on his case,.
Learning about the reports, Perincek said: "this woman can come to the
hearings, but even if wife of Jesus comes, they have no chances to
succeed", Oda TV reported.
Amal Ramzi Alamuddin, wife of famous actor George Clooney, will
represent Armenia at the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) in the
"Perincek v. Switzerland" case. The hearing will be held in Strasbourg
next month.
The Government of Switzerland recently decided to petition that the
Dogu Perincek case be referred for a review by the Grand Chamber of
the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR). On December 17, 2013, the
ECtHR ruled in favor of Armenian Genocide-denying Turkish politician
Dogu Perincek's lawsuit that was filed against Switzerland. The said
judgment by the ECtHR was made on the grounds of freedom of speech. In
2008, a Swiss court had convicted Perincek for denying the Armenian
Genocide. Dogu Perincek is Chairman of the socialist Workers' Party of
Turkey. In addition, he heads the Talat Pasha organization, which
actively fights against the Armenian Genocide's recognition in Europe.
