The Criminal Court of General Jurisdiction of the First Instance of Yerevan, examining the motion to apply detention as a preventive measure against our client D.A., who is accused of a grave crime (Part 1 of Article 393 of the RA Criminal Code), represented by our office attorneys Arsen Sardaryan and Edgar Ayvazyan, rejected the motion, applying alternative preventive measures — house arrest, bail, and a travel ban.
We express our gratitude to Judge Harutyun Manukyan for once again conducting an exemplary trial and delivering a fair judicial act. Thanks to judges like him, a practice is being shaped where detention is treated as an extreme measure.
