"The Court of General Jurisdiction of Kentron and Nork-Marash
districts will hear the case of Armenian MPs Miasnik Malkhassian
and Hakob Hakobian on August 27," Melanya Aroustamian, Advocate of
Myasnik Malkhassian and Hakob Hakobian, informed A1+.
Note, the special investigation body had petitioned the court to
prolong their custody for another two months.
Melanya Aroustamian also presents the interests of Melik Grigorian,
the family driver of Hakob Hakobian. She says Grigorian’s detention
has been disputed at the Appellate Court.
Melik Grigorian is charged with violence against a government
official. He was found guilty and sentenced to 6 months’ imprisonment.
It is still unknown when the Appellate Court will hear the
claim. Nevertheless, Melik Grigorian will be released on September 12.
The case of Mushegh Saghatelian arrested in the morning of March 1
was sent to the RoA Criminal Court.
Mushegh Saghatelian is charged under Article 316 of the RoA CC
(violence against a government representative and appliance of cold
weapon).
