ArmInfo. Chairman of Armenia's Chamber of Advocates Ara Zohrabyan has filed a lawsuit against the RA Minister of Health Arsen Torosyan. This information is posted on the Datalex Legal Information website.
According to the lawsuit filed with the Administrative Court, Zohrabyan is challenging the Minister's order on the mandatory wearing of masks on the streets and in other public places.
To recall, the requirement for the mandatory wearing of masks came into force during the state of emergency, and remains in force under the quarantine in force since September 11. Earlier, RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has repeatedly noted that wearing masks is an effective measure to combat the spread of coronavirus, along with maintaining social distance and hand hygiene. For not wearing a mask, an administrative fine of AMD 10,000 is envisaged.
