The General Court of Kentron and Nork Marash communities today returned
the verdict on Vardan Jhangiryan. The court found him guilty under
Article 316.1. He was sentenced to six years of imprisonment with a
suspended term of three years.

The defending side declared during the previous sitting it did not
expect an acquittal, but it demanded from the court to allow Vardan
Jhangiryan to leave the republic after the verdict is announced
to get necessary treatment. The court, however, did not change the
preventive punishment.

Lawyer Lusine Sahakyan told "Radiolur" that the defending side will
appeal against the decision at the Court of Appeal.
