“POLITICAL JUSTICE INSTEAD OF CONSTITUTIONAL ONE”
Support A1+!Today the plaintiffs (Orinats Yerkir, New Times and Republic) followed the model of the Impeachment Bloc and left the Constitutional Court after the final speeches. According to OYP representative Artashes Avoyan, the CC had ignored the material submitted by the oppositionalists which obviously disclosed election frauds.
“The court did not recognize elections of any precinct invalid. The court administers political justice. Their action is merely a farce,” the OYP representative said.
Gagik Harutyunyan scolded NTP Hrachya Sargsyan for a long political speech.
“You have come to a legal institution and not a political one,” Harutyunyan pointed out.
Gagik Harutyunyan urged the sides not to leave the courtroom unless they heard the speeches.
NWP representative Ruben Torosyan presented new election frauds in his speech. He also referred to President Kocharians' words. To remind, Robert Kocahrian announced yesterday that “RoA Parliament is legitimate”. According to Torosyan, Robert Kocharian breached Article 5 of the Constitution by his announcement.
Torosyan also reflected on a number of abnormal phenomena he had observed during the hearing.
Republic representative Artak Zeynelyan delivered a 28-page speech. Gagik Harutyunyan liked the speech as it “was based on legal facts.”
The respondent side made a short speech. They called on the court to turn down the application as the plaintiffs' arguments were groundless and the fabrications did not affect the election outcome.
The court is to make a decision within three days.
