The Stopping is Easy but is it Easy to Bear?

the representative of Demirchians’s interests Ashot Sargsian"I want
to pay your attention to an action which hasn’t had its precedent before. The
preliminary investigation of a criminal case is done according to the RA law of
the criminal court, there isn’t any notion on panel of judges of the code, the
law on prosecutor where that notion exists doesn’t have any relations to the criminal
process and this allows as to announce that a political resolution has been done
out of the criminal case,"- the advocate Ashot Sargsian said in his interview
yesterday appreciating the decree of panel of judges on the necessity of stopping
the "October 27’s" separate case.According to Ashot Sargsian the
ways of elucidating the "October 27’s" organizers and supporters weren’t
settled as the panel of judges declared. " Had all the ways been settled
as the investigators participating in the interview said? No, hadn’t particularly
the hypothesis of keeping the weapons in NA beforehand hasn’t been completely
examined. Nairi Badalian and Tigran Nazarian’s real participation hasn’t been
completely found out, Angela Sahakova’s case hasn’t been found out yet. She is
the person who had given the permits. She has disappeared since October 27 and
hasn’t been found yet. There were other obscure important issues." The advocate
expressed his opinion in his interview a week ago before the resolution of stopping
the case that the chief of the investigating group Marcel Matevosian doesn’t read
in general the applications produced to him. Yesterday Ashot Sargsian repeated
his opinion: "It is mentioned in the application produced by me that the
weapons had been taken from a deputy’s room and the long umbrellas were used to
hide it for getting to the hall from the corridor. It was written in the application
but the chief of the investigating group didn’t write it. In other case he wouldn’t
say what he said in his interview." Marcel Matevosian explained that the
long umbrellas were used to carry the weapons secretly to NA. To the Marcel
Matevosian’s next allusion that the advocate has produced the applications knowing
that they would be refused he answered that he had worked on each application
for months and if he really intended to speculate he could produce an application
every week especially there were so many omissions. For example, we can produce
an application on interrogation of the official of high rank / it is spoken about
Serge Sargsian – M.Y./. The applications would be produced on some officials of
high rank to interrogate once more if there was an intend to speculate."Answering
to the thoughts of the prosecutor’s representatives that 128 interrogations have
been done on the separate part of the case Ashot Sargsian tried to prove that
it isn’t a big account. "If we count that the case was separated in August
four years ago it turns out 50 months. 128 interrogations have been done during
those 50 months, and they say without shaming that they have done such kind of
thing. It turns out that one and a half interrogations have been done in a month,
in the case that the 90% of interrogations have been done in the office of military
prosecutor. It means that after that the interrogative group hasn’t worked at
all." It is speculated for some days the idea of the prosecutor’s representatives
that nobody responded to the calls of the investigation group and nothing new
was said in connection with the case. The advocate advised: " If you have
once allowed such a slip don’t repeat it twice. The "October 27" crime
doesn’t concern to private crimes when the interrogation continues after complaining
the crime. This is a crime against the state and the Public Office of Prosecutor
must itself attend and don’t wait what and when will be told anything. The "tellers"
will be the investigating organs and the NSS and the executive criminal administration.
Let these services be given assignments, they will carry out and let them to interrogate.
This is the way. And not to tell the relatives of the victims- if you don’t say
anything we don’t attend to this case." Ashot Sargsian reminded that some
of the sent applications were used in another way by the investigating organ:
" Nairi Badalian immediately disappeared after his application." The
representative of Demirchians’ interests said that their applications intended
to investigate thoroughly and clear up the case, so it doesn’t understand Marcel
Matevosian’s thought what would this or that application give? Opposing to this
the advocate said: " We have just produced an application to examine and
know, what would it give and not to stop the case without examine it saying that
it wouldn’t give us anything." The member of Armenian National Party
administration Rouzan Khachatrian who was one of the witnesses of the stopped
case but wasn’t called to court taking part in the interview noticed that the
time of stopping the case isn’t chosen accidentally. " It happened when the
5 years of the crime passed when the serious participant politicians said that
the case hadn’t been discovered and the OSCE commission analyses were these days.
It is obvious there isn’t any debt from where this "collegial" resolution
was ordered. There is only one figure who can oppose to the all even to his assistant
politicians, he is Robert Kocharian." And what kinds of steps will the
relatives of the victims will undertake? Ashot Sargsian said that they would wait
the resolution of investigating group. " We’ll read the resolution then will
protest the general prosecutor during 7 days, after that we’ll have the opportunity
to protest in the court." Essentially this time everything will be in constitutional
way, too.Margaret Yesayan
