ArmInfo. The team of lawyers of the second President of Armenia Robert Kocharyan will submit a motion for the recusal of Judge Anna Danibekyan.
As the former president's advocates said in a statement, the petition will be presented at the upcoming October 7 regular court hearing in the Kocharyan case. As the reason for this step, "the behavior of the judge in relation to Robert Kocharyan" is voiced. The second president of Armenia is accused in the case of March 1, 2008. On May 18, the court of general jurisdiction of Yerevan decided to change the measure of restraint against Robert Kocharyan from arrest to release on bail. On June 25, the Criminal Court of Appeal decided to reverse the decision of the trial court. On September 25, the Court of Cassation rejected the request of Kocharian's lawyers to annul the decision of the Court of Appeal.
