What Decision Did the Court of Appeals Make in the Case of the Mayor of Goris: Details
The Court of Appeals, presided over by Judge Mher Arghamanyan, rejected the appeal against the first-instance court's decision to deny the release of Goris Mayor Arush Arushanyan from custody on bail. This means that Arush Arushanyan will remain in detention as the first-instance court's ruling remains in effect.
During the court session, the prosecutor did not participate, informing in writing that they were occupied and did not oppose the defense's appeal being reviewed in their absence.
It is noteworthy that following the extraordinary parliamentary elections, a criminal case was initiated regarding the provision of bribes for voting in favor of the “Armenia” alliance. Custody was selected as a measure against Arush Arushanyan.
