The proceedings of the case involving Armenia’s second president Robert Kocharyan, former deputy prime minister Armen Gevorgyan, former defense minister Seyran Ohanyan, former head of Chief Staff Yuri Khachaturov have been suspended and forwarded to Constitutional Court.
The information has been confirmed to Aysor.am by the press secretary of Kocharyan’s defense team Elen Arakelyan.
Kocharyan’s defense team has many times submitted petitions for the courts to address the Constitutional Court on the ground of establishing the constitutionality of Article 301.1 of Armenia’s Criminal Code but they have always been rejected.
