Hraparak: Former prosecutor general to tear down criminal proceedings against Hrayr Tovmasyan
Hraparak paper writes that former prosecutor general of Armenia Gevorg Kostanyan is going to come up with a statement in near future regarding the criminal persecution against CC chairman Hrayr Tovmasyan and to tear down the initiated criminal proceedings.
“We are again dealing with a case when the law enforcement bodies consider the legislation of Armenia comprise of Criminal Code only and not Constitution. This is why I consider such attitude toward the chairman of the Constitutional Court inadmissible as the very fact violates both the independence of courts and the foundation of the state based on the rule of law,” the paper cited Kostanyan as saying.
He stressed that he is going to refer to it in the near future.
