"In the case of the co-authors of the Imnemini podcast, Vazgen Saghatelyan and Narek Samsonyan, the government is trying to use its main weapon, fraud and manipulation," says Saghatelyan's defense attorney Arsen Babayan.
He continues. "For example, Hayk Konjoryan asks the people in a video if they consider cursing and heavy insults in political criticism normal and if it is an indicator of democracy.
Listen, dear people, don't fall for these cheap tricks. You may not consider the swearing and heavy insults of Vazgen and Narek during the podcast to be normal, but it is certain that there is no crime in it and it is not permissible to arrest the boys for this in the legal sense.
The boys are political prisoners and there is simply no second opinion...
The purpose of this is to suppress the free media, and specifically to close the Antifake media.
