Yerevan court lifts administrative supervision measure against mayor  of Stepanakert

ArmInfo.The Yerevan court of general jurisdiction has accepted the arguments put forward by the  lawyers of Stepanakert mayor David Sargsyan's, leading to the removal of the administrative supervision measure against him.

During the court hearing on January 29, lawyer Roman Yeritsyan noted  that  David Sargsyan was previously restricted from leaving his  apartment from 19:00 to 07:00 as part of the administrative  supervision. Additionally,  he was not allowed to attend public  events or visit service enterprises, including stores, without  appropriate permission. Contact with persons involved in his case was  also prohibited.  However, as the charges against the mayor of  Stepanakert were minor, the necessity for administrative supervision  deemed unnecessary. The judge agreed with the defense's arguments,  but maintained the requirement to remain available.

Recall  that David Sargsyan and three others were charged with fraud,  which was later replaced with arbitrariness. In particular, he is  accused of fraud related to the sale of 4 cars listed on the   Stepanakert mayor's office balance sheet .
