Sedrakyan's lawyer to appeal verdict
Lawyer Alexander Sirunyan today received the March 18, 2013, verdict of the Court of Criminal Appeals which upheld the ruling of a lower court to choose detention as a preventive measure against ex-presidential candidate Vardan Sedrakyan.
The lawyer is going to appeal the verdict in the Cassation Court after making clarifications with Sedrakyan.
On March 5, the National Security Service charged Vardan Sedrakyan with ordering an assassination attempt against Paruyr Hayrikyan, Chairman of the Union of National Self-Determination, ahead of the February 18 presidential election.
