YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 13, NOYAN TAPAN. "I want only to fact that the whole
judicial process is distorted. We say from the first day that we do
not refuse responsibility. We just want that this process proceeds in
correspondence with the law." It was stated by Armen Mazmanian, the
"Goy" theater artistic head towards who ALM Holding Director Tigran
Karapetian brought an action according to two articles: 135, 136
(slander and insult) of the RA Criminal Code. In A.Mazmanian’s words,
a law violation was fixed from the moment when by the Prosecutor’s
General decree, the case of sent to the city prosecutor’s office,
when, in the specialists’s words, the police examines similar
cases. A.Mazmanian also mentioned that RA Police employees answered
in written form to inquiry the RA Prosecutor’s Office about Tigran
Karapetian’s having been convicted (what Mazmanian insists on), when
the answer was to be given by corresponding structures of Russia. "I
insist that I did not insult, but only gave an estimation. It found out
that I was mistaken by saying semi-literate as one making 5 spelling
and 6 punctuation mistakes in one sentence is simply illiterate,"
A.Mazmanian mentitoned, taking into consideration the sentence
about T.Karapetian’s agreement under the report prepared at the
court. A.Mazmanian came to the conclusion after the unevennesses
and red-tape in the judicial process that "that mister is from the
outset created as a pseudo-opposition. He has some places and gets
weekly accounting about who and how many times he may discredit and
slander: the Prosecutor’s Office, NA, President. It is made for the
not oriented sector of the opposition disconnects and decomposes."
