YEREVAN. – The initiative group of the “Vahe Avetyan” movement states the need to establish a Public Justice Tribunal in Armenia, initiative group member Garegin Chugaszyan said during a press conference on Friday.

He noted that the objective of this tribunal will be to expose the crimes committed by the representatives of Armenia’s governing system—or by their beneficiaries—, and to oversee and make legal and political assessments on the activities by the judicial authorities and the officials of the country.        

As Armenian News-NEWS.am informed earlier, an incident had occurred at capital city Yerevan’s Harsnaqar Restaurant Complex on June 17, 2012, where several military doctors including Edgar Mikoyan, Arkadi Aghajanyan, Garik Soghomonyan, Artak Bayadyan and Vahe Avetyan were brutally beaten by Restaurant security personnel, and Avetyan had died in hospital on June 29.

Subsequently, a criminal lawsuit was filed into this incident, and six people were arrested.

The Restaurant’s owner is ruling Republican Party former MP, Football Federation of Armenia President, and businessman Ruben Hayrapetyan, who formally gave up his parliamentary seat in connection with this incident.
