During the hearing of the case of Vardan Petrosyan his advocate
Nikolay Baghdasaryan made some interesting statements, accusing
officials of misuse.
During the study of evidence, the court published the records of
examination of the Niva car of the victim Arthur Hakobyan drafted by
investigator Hakob Hakobyan which stated that after the accident it
was impossible to open the doors of the car, and the side mirror was
on the driver's seat.
Vardan Petrosyan's advocate Nikolay Baghdasaryan announced that the
autogas system had been installed without permission. Besides,
according to him, though the car had an autogas tank and was run on
autogas, the office to which the car belonged issued petroleum checks
for this car.
"The mileages of the car from installation of the gas tank till the
accident scene is available, the difference shows how long the vehicle
used gas but received petroleum checks from officials and calculate
the amount received from the loan organization, from the World Bank,
that has been misused," the advocate announced. In answer to this
statement Judge Vaghinak Mkrtichyan echoed that the case is brought
under Article 282, and "we are not discussing what additional amounts
and by who were given".
However, Nikolay Baghdasaryan went on to say that the investigative
body has not investigated this issue. "The submitted documents have
come to prove that they did not notice over 1.5 year that the car had
an autogas tank, when they changed oil," he said, noting that there is
evidence that the LPG system had been installed illegally, which is a
violation of use of this vehicle and was the cause of death of
victims, not a condition. "If the autogas tank had not been installed
in the car boot, the victims would not have died in this accident,"
the advocate concluded.
Responding to the statement of the advocate, the representative of the
victim Ruben Baloyan said, "I have stated for multiple times that the
gas tank has nothing to do with this accident. It is the next episode
of this trial, and the counsel for the defense is trying to prove that
the accident would not have happened had there not been for the gas
tank." Ruben Baloyan said the forensic expert's conclusion on the
cause of death is available but since this evidence has not been
published at this stage of the trial, the judge asked the sides to
refrain from making statements on it.
Prosecutor Arthur Sargsyan announced that there is no factual evidence
attached to the case on the facts mentioned by Nikolay Baghdasaryan.
"These documents do not contain any question whether they install an
autogas tank or not, it is only costs on maintenance," the prosecutor
said, adding that the maintenance documents are evidence that the car
passed maintenance every month.
Note that the Niva car driven by Arthur Hakobyan at the time of the
accident was the asset of the Agricultural Project Implementation
Unit, a state office which has filed a damage claim against Vardan
Petrosyan for 2.6 million AMD.
By the way, the discussion of the gas tank and that it was the cause
of death of the children angered Arthur Hakobyan, the father of one of
the children who died in the accident, and at the end of the court
sitting he addressed Nikolay Baghdasaryan, "Pull yourself together or
you know how all this may end up. Don't forget that you ruined two 16
year olds. And whoever forgets, let the same happen to their family."
Fortunately, the court ushers interfered and prevented a fight between
them.
The trial will continue on Friday, June 20.
