“You say I am a murderer, I say, I am not. Prove it!” Defendant on Murder Case

The trial presided by Judge Davit Harutyunyan on the murder of Haigaz Barseghyan, the cadet of the Military Institute after Vazgen Sargsyan started at the Avan residence of Yerevan Court of General Jurisdiction.

The first defendant, K. Tevosyan, testified in court.

The defendant mentioned that Haykaz Barseghyan was last seen on the morning of January 28. According to him, the military police had pressed on the witness’ testimony and they had cast a slur.

“The inference is that the Military police has used force on witnesses and charged me. I say what I have seen. I have also been forced to accept what I had not done. I do not know how, but they used bad means. The pressure was in various forms, such as cursing, beating and torture. I had told all this, but the case has not been processed,” Gnel Tevosyan said.

In response to the question of the Military Prosecutor, why he had not voiced it in the court that the preliminary investigation body had used pressure against the witnesses Tevosyan said:

“I did not ask questions to the witnesses at the court because they were in such a state of mind that they had not told anything even to their parents. These testimonies have been instilled in them. When Serobyan Samvel was brought face-to-face with me, then he noted that I had not entered Haykaz’s room, I was not there, and that is not in the case. It was on January 29, the day after the murder. The man stood in front of me and told that Tevosyan Gnel had not entered the room, and later he said something else,” the defendant said.

G. Tevosyan mentioned that when the superior ordered to look for Haykaz Barseghyan he was with cadet Hovhannes Hovhannisyan.

“Then we met my father. He asked what we know about the incident; Hovik answered the first, and said that we spoke with each other at night. Then we went to battalion. You say I am a murderer, I say, I am not. Prove it!” the defendant said.
