“JUDGE DISCHARGES NOTARY’S FUNCTIONS”
Support A1+!Court of General Jurisdiction of Yerevan’s Kentron and Nork-Marash districts sentenced Iranian Armenian Vardges Gaspar, Levon Ter-Petrosyan’s proxy during the February 19 Presidential election, to a one - year prison sentence.
Note, Vardges Gaspar was charged with violence against a government representative (Article 316 of the Criminal Code).
Advocate Ara Zakaryan is going to appeal the court verdict. “Evidently, permissiveness reigns in Armenian courts. Sometimes you try to give a legal assessment to court decisions. But I think this time the court decision needs a medical assessment,” he said.
The Advocate states that the Court acts under a well-planned scenario as even the prosecutor didn’t come to hear the verdict. “This evidences to the fact that Judge Arshak Petrosyan discharges notary’s duties rather than administers justice,” he said.
