13:09 | March 2,2015 | Politics
The advocates of Shant Harutyunyan, the leader of the opposition
Tseghakron party, and his friends have lodged an appeal to the Court
of Cassation requesting the latter to review the ruling of a lower
court. They have filed a motion to acquit their clients.
On October 19, a court in Yerevan found Shant Harutyunyan, leader
of the radical opposition party, his underage son Shahen Harutyunyan
and ten other activists who also participated in the November 5, 2013
anti-government protest, guilty of acts of hooliganism and sentenced
them from 1 to 7 years in prison. The court sentenced Shant Harutyunyan
and his son to 6 and 4 years in prison, respectively.
In February 2015, the Court of Appeal upheld the verdict against
Shant Harutyunyan and his friends.
