"How did the RA President award medals on the occasion of the Independence Day? In the judicial system, not the professional merit, but to being a friend of the President of the BDP and making a decision to make a political power. Yesterday at the BDU awarding ceremony was held. Chairman of the Chrets Artur Atyekyan handed over a number of judges on the Independence Day Medals awarded by the President of the Republic of Armenia. Mkhitar Gosh Medals were submitted to Judge Sergey Sahakyan, Judge of the Court of Appeal, Judge of the Court of Appeal, Judge Garik Avagyan and several judges of the Bankruptcy Court. It turns out that many of the judges who received the Mkhitar Gosh medal are not accidental people. They are friends with the young people of Artur Atabekyan, President of the Judiciary, who have traveled with him in the judicial department.
Let's talk about facts
E. The other medalist is a judge of the Criminal Court of Appeal, which has been working in the Judicial Department of the Judicial Profession as a specialist in the Judicial Professional Department since 2010. From 2012, 2014 he worked in the Judicial Department of the Republic of Armenia as a senior specialist of the Judicial Practice Department. Moreover, Mnatsakan Harutyunyan stood out in 2022.
The fact that the second President of the Republic of Armenia Robert Kocharyan was in custody on February 7 2022, and his defenders complained to the RA Court of Appeals against the decision of the Court of First Instance on the Prevention. As a result, Harutyunyan rejected the defenders' complaint and left Robert Kocharyan in custody. The Mkhitar Gosh Medal was also awarded to Judge Garik Avagyan, who is Arthur Atabekyan's friend. The point is that before becoming President of BDP, Atabekyan was the president of the bankruptcy court and did not forget his friend who worked in the court of bankruptcy, he was a medal. "
