ALL THREE TRIALS DELAYED
Support A1+!Today in the Common Jurisdiction Court of Kentron and Nork-Marash Districts March 1 detainees Misak Hovakimian and Hovhannes Ghazarian were on trial. Both of them were accused of using violence against the police.
The court-room was full of spectators who greeted both convicts with heavy and loud applauses. The judges were apparently displeased with the sight. By the way, the spectators evidently treated the judge with disregard. They did not rise to their feet when the latter entered. Moreover, they did not obey his instructions. Hovhannes Ghazarian’s trial was postponed until May 6 because of his attorney Nazeli Vardanian’s absence. As for Hovakimian’s trial, it was regularly delayed for various reasons. In the end it was postponed when the attorney Vahe Grigorian presented solicitation to substitute Hovakimian’s precautionary measure with loan or other alternative measures.
After a one-hour break the judge announced that the case investigation was delayed until May 7.
In the Common Jurisdiction Court of Shengavit another detainee Isahak Malkhasian was on trial. He was accused under Articles 316 and 235. His trial was delayed until May 8.
