Pastinfo: Armenia’s NSS threatens Yerevan judge Vahagn Melikyan
Citing its sources in National Security Service Pastinfo reports that the NSS summoned judge of the Yerevan court of general jurisdiction in Avan administrative region Vahagn Melikyan.
In the NSS the officers showed him a personal video and demanded that he uphold the new motion of the State Revenue Committee to arrest former ambassador of Armenia to the Holy See Mikayel Minasyan, regardless of procedural violations.
Pastinfo tried to receive a commentary from Mikayel Minasyan’s attorney Mihran Poghosyan, but the latter stated that he didn’t know anything about the new motion regarding the arrest. Later it was impossible to contact him.
Armenia’s Criminal Court of Appeal had overturned the court’s decision on selecting arrest as a preventive measure against Mikayel Minasyan against which the Prosecutor General’s Office had filed an appeal.
