Today was the subsequent trial of advocate Mushegh Shushanyan at the
Kentron and Nork-Marash districts’ first instance court in Yerevan.

First, Judge Gayane Karakhanyan presented the decision of the
Constitutional Court and after hearing the decision, Mushegh
Shushanyan’s advocate Hayk Aylumyan filed another petition by
which Shushanyan’s side is planning to appeal the decision of the
Constitutional Court and ask to end the case.

"If the fact that the Ombudsman addressed the Constitutional Court
and the arguments brought up in the appeal are taken into account, it
is not excluded that the Constitutional Court consider the mentioned
norm as anti-constitutional," said Mushegh Shushanyan to "A1+". After
nearly an hour of consultation, the judge announced the decision to
reject the petition and Shushanyan’s next trial will be on August 5.

Shushanyan is charged with showing disrespectful behavior toward
the court.
