10.08.2014 15:22 epress.am
Journalist and Heritage Party board member Hrayr Manukyan (pictured)
had demanded a criminal case be instituted against the National
Security Service (NSS) and during the lawsuits examination the
prosecutor did not present the claimant with his demanded explanation.
Epress.am was informed of the latter by one of the claimants, Heritage
Party lawyer Harutyun Baghdasaryan. Both the Heritage Party and Hrayr
Manukyan have submitted a separate lawsuits.
The journalist's and party's complaint are based on a NSS
representative's attempt to recruit Manukyan. An audio recording
released (ARM) by the journalist reveals that the NSS representative
threatened Manukyan after he declined an offer to work for the NSS.
The Prosecutor General had refused to initiate a criminal case against
the NSS and both the party and Manukyan have demanded to overturn the
prosecutor's decision. Until now, the case had been examined in two
separate proceedings, which have now conjoined, and will be presented
as one case during the next court session on October 10.
"Before the court case, I had demanded time, in order for the
prosecutor to present me a hand-written explanation on the basis of
the decision to not initiate the criminal case. The court session
was delayed because the prosecutor had not prepared those documents.
Anyways, nearly a month has passed and the court hasn't received any
documents. The last session didn't take place because the judge was
absent, and the prosecutor didn't even show up, while we learned
from the court that there hadn't even been any documents sent,"
said Harutyun Baghdasaryan.
