ArmInfo. Gagik Jhangiryan, a candidate for the position of a member of the Supreme Judicial Council, has a negative attitude to the idea of establishing a Supreme Court. Jhangiryan stated this on January 22 from the rostrum of the parliament.
Jhangiryan noted that at the moment there are two established judicial bodies in Armenia - the Constitutional Court and the Court of Cassation. According to him, alternatives to these bodies are not needed. <It is possible that there are problems in the activities of these bodies. But we can quite solve them. I think there is no need to establish a Supreme Court, "Jhangiryan noted.
To note, the authorities have noted several times that they are considering the possibility of establishing a Supreme Court, which, in fact, will combine the Constitutional and Cassation Courts. Many lawyers have already spoken out against this idea.
