Брат Католикоса приговорен к 2 годам 5 месяцам условно, его племянник - к 3 годам 5 месяцам лишения свободы

АрмИнфо. Суд общей юрисдикции Армавирской области приговорил брата Католикоса всех армян Геворга Нерсисяна к 2 годам 5 месяцам условного заключения, а его племянника Амбарцума Нерсисяна к 3 годам 5 месяцам 25 дням лишения свободы. Решение 12 ноября огласил судья суда общей юрисдикции Армавирской области Геворг Манукян.

Он напомнил, что Геворг и Амбарцум Нерсисяны признаны виновными по статье о принуждении к агитации или отказу от нее, а также воспрепятствовании агитационной деятельности (по пункту 5 части 2 статьи 211 Уголовного кодекса Армении).

В отношении Геворга Нерсисяна суд в качестве наказания назначил 3 года лишения свободы. Вместе с тем, на основании статьи 75 УК Армении из назначенного срока был зачтен период содержания под стражей - 6 месяцев и 5 дней. В итоге, окончательный срок наказания составил 2 года 5 месяцев и 25 дней. При этом, применив положения статьи 84 УК Армении, суд постановил считать наказание условным, установив в отношении Геворга Нерсисяна испытательный срок в 2 года.

"В течение испытательного срока Нерсисян не вправе покидать территорию Армении без согласия компетентного органа. Кроме того, в случае смены места жительства он обязан в кратчайшие сроки сообщить новый адрес. Административный надзор, залог и запрет на отсутствие, примененные в отношении Геворга Нерсисяна, оставлены в силе до вступления судебного решения в законную силу, после чего подлежат отмене", - сообщил судья.

В отношении Амбарцума Нерсисяна суд назначил 3 года лишения свободы по пункту 5 части 2 статьи 211 УК Армении. Из этого срока был зачтен период содержания под стражей - 6 месяцев и 5 дней. В результате срок наказания составил 2 года 5 месяцев и 25 дней. При этом согласно статье 75 УК Армении суд частично прибавил к указанной мере 1 год из трех назначенных в отношении Амбарцума Нерсисяна Армависким судом общей юрисдикции, при совокупности определив окончательное наказание в виде 3 лет 5 месяцев и 25 дней лишения свободы. "Исполнение наказания в отношении Амбарцума Нерсисяна отложено до достижения его новорожденного ребенка 6 лет. На этот период установлен испытательный срок. В течение испытательного срока Амбарцум Нерсисян не вправе покидать территорию Армении без согласия компетентного органа. В случае изменения места жительства он также обязан в кратчайшие сроки уведомить соответствующий орган о новом адресе. Примененные в отношении Амбарцума Нерсисяна административный надзор, залог и запрет на отсутствие будут действовать до вступления судебного решения в законную силу, после чего подлежат отмене", - заявил Манукян.

Судья добавил, что решение суда может быть обжаловано в Апелляционном уголовном суде.

Напомним, что 2 ноября 2025 года адвокат Ара Зограбян сообщил о задержании Геворга Нерсисяна и Амбарцума Нерсисяна. Им вменяли хулиганство и воспрепятствование предвыборной агитации. 3 ноября суд избрал в отношении Геворга Нерсисяна меру пресечения в виде ареста сроком на два месяца, а в отношении Амбарцума Нерсисяна - на один месяц. Впоследствии сроки содержания под стражей были продлены. 18 февраля 2026 года суд первой инстанции Армавирской области изменил меру пресечения в отношении брата и племянника Католикоса всех армян Гарегина II. Вместо содержания под стражей суд установил для них домашний арест сроком на три месяца, залог в размере 1 млн драмов для каждого, а также запрет на самовольное оставление места жительства. Кроме того, суд ограничил круг лиц, с которыми им разрешено общаться, разрешив контакты только с близкими родственниками и адвокатами. Позже мера пресечения была изменена на административный надзор.

Адвокат Ара Зограбян в связи с этим опубликовал видеозапись с места инцидента, обратив внимание, что никакого хулиганства, а уж тем более приписываемого его подзащитным препятствования агитации не было. Независимые правозащитники склоны считать, что таким образом власти Армении пытаются оказать давление на Гарегина II и заставить его добровольно покинуть Первопрестольный Эчмиадзин.
