TWO LAWYERS WILL DEFEND THE COMMANDER
Support A1+!On May 21 two lawyers will defend Husik Baghdasarian, Commander of Masis Battalion.
Today Husik Baghdasarian’s resumed trial was postponed again because of the latter’s demand to invite a second lawyer Hovik Arsenian to defend him. Thus, on May 20 both Hovik Arsenian and Vardan Zournachian (Baghdasarian’s present lawyer) will speak in his defense.
Reminder: The commander of Masis Battalion is accused under Article 235 /possession of illegal weapons/ and has been sentenced to 3 years’ imprisonment.
“I didn’t know my husband was going to demand a second lawyer. Probably one lawyer doesn’t manage all the work”, Baghdasarian’s wife told “A1+”.
“Husik Baghdasarian will be more effectively defended by 2 lawyers. Besides, the possibility of making a mistake fades away”, considers Zournachian, Baghdasarian’s present lawyer.
