Edmond Marukyan: Permyakov Will Be Tried in Garrison Court

Law - 19 January 2015, 18:13
"When it is announced that the criminal will be prosecuted and
punished in the territory of Armenia, I understand it in the following
way: the trial will take place at the 5th garrison court," Member of
Parliament Edmond Marukyan comments on Prosecutor General Gevorg
Kostanyan's statement, referring to his experience as advocate in
cases of crimes committed in the territory of the Russian military
base.
He says at the moment the Russian jurisdiction fully applies to the
accused because the garrison court has warranted his arrest and he is
held at the base.
"It is something different that there are two separate criminal cases,
one was brought by us and the other was brought by them relating to
the crime relating to them, and a joint investigation is carried out,"
Edmond Marukyan says, adding that as far as he understands, evidence
gained in the result of the joint examination and the files of the
case will be integrated into one case which will be sent for trial.
The member of parliament says the Armenian public will have a
possibility to follow the trial in the garrison court.
"Because I have participated, I know that there is a possibility to
follow the trial," the member of parliament said.
As to serving the punishment, again referring to his experience,
Edmond Marukyan said if the verdict of the court of first instance is
appealed, the case will be sent to the Court of Appeals of Rostov, if
not, he will be sent to any penitentiary in Russia to serve his
punishment.
And if Armenia fails to have Permyakov handed to the Armenian law
enforcement agencies and try him at an Armenian court, the only thing
to do is, according to Marukyan, to be active and demand an adequate
punishment.
To avoid such cases in the future, the member of parliament advises to
claim and receive guarantees at the level of the state.
