A Yerevan court today threw out the slander suit brought by the
Vanadzor Office of the Helsinki Citizens’ Assembly (HCAV) against
Vladimir Gasparyan.
The NGO had sued Gasparyan for remarks he made during an October 2011
interview with the hraparak.am news site and a program called Zinouzh.
The organization claims that some of the remarks slandered their
good name.
Vladimir Gasparyan, now the Chief of Police in Armenia, made the
remarks while serving as the deputy defense minister.
The NGO had demanded that Gasparyan issue a public apology for his
remarks and to pay 10 AMD in symbolic compensation.
