ArmInfo. There is already not a single person, including among the judges, for whom it would not be clear that the preventive measure against the second President of Armenia Robert Kocharian is illegal. The head of the office of the second president of Armenia Robert Kocharian Viktor Soghomonyan said this on December 12 in Yerevan in an interview with reporters on the sidelines of the Third meeting of the Russian-Armenian "Lazarevsky Club".
According to him, this is precisely the reason for the fact that judges "in order to avoid unnecessary headaches" take turns in self-recusation in order not to conduct this case, not to be subjected to pressure and to make an illegal decision. At the same time, he stated that he did not remember a single case when so many judges would recuse himself. Soghomonyan is convinced that this is the best indicator of lawlessness around this case.
Touching upon the state of health of the second president of the Republic of Armenia, Soghomonyan noted that he does not have enough information on this issue and he needs to clarify the details. "I know that the condition is satisfactory, everything is fine," he said.
However, he found it difficult to say whether Kocharyan underwent a second surgical intervention. "I'm not sure that the operation was repeated, but it's possible. I need to clarify. Due to the illegal actions of the current authorities, I don't have the opportunity to quickly receive information, it arrives late from lawyers and relatives," Soghomonyan summed up.
