Yerevan court rejects motion to release Robert Kocharyan on bail
The Yerevan court of general instance rejected on Friday the motion brought by second President Robert Kocharyan’s defense team to release him on bail. The decision of the court under presiding Judge Anna Danibekyan was announced moments ago.
The ruling came two days after the same Court rejected the motion brought by Kocharyan’s lawyers to free the former president and end his prosecution. In their previous motion the defense team had cited the Constitutional Court’s September 4 decision that acknowledged the arrest of the president was ‘unconstitutional’ in the light of the provision of immunity of high-level officials from prosecution.
