First Instance Court of Yerevan’s Kentron and Nork-Marash districts
will hear the case of editor-in-chief of Haykakan Zhamanak daily
Nikol Pashinian on October 20.

Advocates say Judge Mnatsakan Martirosian should take a legal step –
dismiss the case.

"We do not expect the judge to administer justice as he has a biased
approach to the deadly clashes of March 1-2, 2008," Advocate Lusine
Sahakian told A1+.

"Pashinian’s case involves opposition leaders’ telephone conversations
of March 1, 2007.

There is no evidence proving Pashinian’s guiltiness," added the
advocate.

Remind that Nikol Pashinian is charged under Articles 225 and 316 of
the RA Criminal Code.
