Another Witness in Artak Nazaryan Trial Refutes Earlier Testimony

In a Tavush regional court on Tuesday in the trial of rifle platoon commander Artak Nazaryan, who died during a period of non combat on a military base on Jul. 27, 2010, Judge Samvel Mardanyan rejected the victim party’s motion for the judge to withdraw on the grounds that he is not impartial.

This news was conveyed to Epress.am by Ruben Martirosyan, who is representing the victim’s legal successor in the case. Martirosyan added that state prosecutor Harutyun Harutyunyan said he doesn’t refute the opinion that testimonies were fraudulently exhorted from witnesses; however, he was not by the investigator’s side at the time testimonies were made and was unaware any such illegal actions.
