The European Court of Human Rights will reach another verdict in
favor of the Republic of Armenia.

Advocates of "Republic" party’s political council member Smbat
Ayvazyan, who was deprived of liberty after the 2008 presidential
elections, appealed to the European Court of Human Rights regarding
their defendant’s infringed rights.

Six articles of the declaration of human rights have been violated,
including the 5th article on the right of freedom, 6th article on
fair trial, 10th on freedom of speech, 11th on freedom of rallies,
14th on ban on discrimination and the 18th article according to which
any form of application of limits on human rights foreseen by the
convention are prohibited, except that which is foreseen.

"We know that the violations will be acknowledged because there are
many of them under each of the points stated in the convention. We are
certain that the European Court will acknowledge the violations under
all articles," told "A1+" Smbat Ayvazyan’s advocate Lusine Sahakyan.
