TRIAL INTO SOLDIER’S DEATH AGAIN ADJOURNED
10:14 pm | February 08, 2012 | Social
The trial into the case of Artak Nazaryan, who died under non-combat
conditions in one of the military units in Tavush marz, was due to
take place on February 8.
The sitting started with a 15-minute delay since the court was waiting
for Alvard Mnatsakanyan, lawyer for defendants Harutik Kirakosyan,
Adibek Hovhannisyan and Mkhitar Mkhitaryan.
However, lawyers Hrant Gevorgyan and Azat Shahbayan did not attend
the seeing accounting their absence for unfavourable weather.
Artak Nazaryan was found dead in one of the border bases in Chinari
villages on July 27, 2010. Though Nazaryan was officially announced
to have committed suicide, his relatives claim that the 30-year-old
lieutenant was murdered.
Five accused have been named in the case.
