The European Court of Human Rights has registered the complaints filed by the defense team of Armenia’s second president Robert Kocharyan, the team reports.

One of the complaints relates to the Point 2 and 3 of Article 6 of the European Convention on the basis of infringement of the presumption of innocence and violation of defense right and on the basis of the selection of detention as Kocharyan’s preventive measure.

The ECHR Secretariat has informed the defense team that the court will start the examination of the case at the earliest opportunity.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
