Suit filed by New Times party chair Aram Karapetyan against National
Unity party leaders was heard Friday at the first instance court. The
suit has been filed over the allegation saying he is “the authorities’
agent”.
The plaintiff’s lawyer Levon Baghdasaryan demanded the defendant to
answer for their allegation.
The defense attorneys Gagik Kostandyan and Agassi Arshakyan said
their clients hadn’t intended to insult Karapetyan and hurt his
dignity. They only noted he had turned off the road of the opposition.
The defense side submitted their arguments, and the court gave the
plaintiff time to look through them. The second session is scheduled
for June 14. Azg newspaper correspondent Tatul Hakobyan will be
subpoenaed to court as witness.
