“I don’t notice a trend, but inaction. I notice a heavy load with other things, political persecutions.” “18 righteous” case session after the end, lawyer Sergey Harutyunyan told reporters, adding that the number of different types of crimes in Armenia is increasing day by day, including crimes with the use of weapons, but the law enforcement system is tied to political persecution.
“Today we already learned that 15 people were arrested. it is clear that they are burdened with it. Maybe they are celebrating their professional holiday a little more,” said the defender.
Reminder today the police did not provide the presence of accused Vahagn Chakhalyan and Artur Sargsyan, who are under house arrest, at the session.
He added about the case itself. “From the day the proceedings were initiated, it was clear that this proceeding is fake, it cannot be taken seriously. When the idea of the pre-examination secret came out, we managed to show it all to the public. Our arguments show the fabrication of this case and the fairness of 18 persons. People have been in prison for a long time, and Saint Bagrat is still in prison.”
According to the lawyer, the upcoming period is pre-election and that is one of the reasons why Saint Bagrat is not free. his speech is influential and can have great significance.
In this case, in current Armenia, the lawyer does not expect a fair trial.
