The lawyer of Edgar Arakelyan, who was sentenced to a year and six
months for hitting a policeman with an empty plastic bottle, filed
a motion to the Court of Appeal on Tuesday.

He is asking to reconsider the case and, taking into account his
client’s repentance, to replace the punishment with a not so severe
one: to fine him or give him a suspended sentence.
