ArmInfo. Levon Avagyan’s trial, the teacher at Nubarashen Boarding
School N 11, charged with sexual harassment (Article 142, part 2,
Criminal Code of Armenia) is postponed till May 4. Judge Arthur
Gabrielyan adopted the given decision granting the motion by Levon
Avagyan for additional time to find a new lawyer. The accused refused
from the lawyer Victoria Kirakosyan for certain disagreements.
Earlier on Nov 13 2008 the Armenian Public Television program "Haylur"
reported of sexual abuse of certain D.A., a pupil of the Nubarashen
special school No.11, by her teacher Levon Avagyan.
After the report, the Erebuni Investigation Department accused
Marian Sukhudyan, participant in the monitoring of the given school,
the well-known activist of the green Movement, instead of the actual
guilty party. She was charged with Article 135 part 1 of the Criminal
Code of Armenia (slander), then with Article 333 part 2 point 3 (false
denunciation for illicit gain) and then again with Article 135. Later
all these charged were removed. The Prosecutor General’s Office of
Armenia told ArmInfo that the Yerevan Investigation Department of the
Chief Intelligence Department of the Armenian Police revealed that
the Erebuni Community Department made its own interpretation of all
the proofs. A criminal case on the facts of sexual abuse of minors
has been initiated.
