Name of judge working with US secret services becomes known
The name of the Armenian judge who, upon his arrival in the United States, promised to give information to U.S. secret services has become known, according to ‘Hraparak’. The matter concerns Suren Ghazarian, a judge of the first instance court of Yerevan’s Arabkir and Kanaker-Zeytun administrative districts.
“Ghazarian was dismissed from his job in 2010. He declared he was dismissed by the decision of the Cassation Court’s chairman Arman Mkrtumian after he didn’t obey the instructions from above during examination of a case. The reason was the verdict on the case infringing on the interests of Yukos and Rosneft companies. The U.S. Department of State touched upon that issue in its annual 2012 report,” the paper says.
