The issue of the legality of restricting the visits and phone calls to Arush Arushanyan has already been discussed. The defense filed a motion with the court to have these restrictions lifted in whole or in part

Arushanyan’s lawyer Erik Aleksanyan said before the court session.

“We have presented our position. Today, from the very beginning of the court session, the prosecutor will announce his position, after which the court will make a decision on it, after which we will enter the main stage of the judicial examination. There is a certain procedure, it will be provided․ After reading the final part of the indictment, we will decide the order of the sequence of examination of the evidence.

The defense has its position on what evidence to start with, at this moment I do not want to say anything about it. After passing a certain stage, after conducting certain investigations, the defense party is going to submit a motion to apply a more lenient measure of restraint instead of chosen detention measure of restraint. In particular, we are talking about both the pledge and the personal guarantee.

As you know, the relevant deputies of the “Hayastan” faction have already come to Goris to support Arush Arushanyan, and also express their readiness to establish their personal guarantee for Arush Arushanyan’s proper behavior within the framework of the personal guarantee measure,” Erik Aleksanyan said.
