YEREVAN. – The Court of First Jurisdiction of Yerevan City Center and Nork Marash Districts put into procedure the Sakunts vs. Hayrapetyan case.

The lawsuit was filed because on May 26, 2012, scandalous President of Armenian Football Federation and former MP Ruben Hayrapetyan make an announcement during a sport program shown by the Armenian Public Television.

“When I want to build a football school in Vanadzor there is no tree and no bush, I build the school on a top of the hill, but for some reason, a Helsinki son of a dog appears and sues us, the city hall, the decision of the city council, and the federation as a third and responsible party,” Ruben Hayrapetyan had announced.

The representative of the petitioner Karen Tovmasyan had mentioned in the lawsuit that the phrase ‘a Helsinki son of dog appears and sues us’ was an insult against Arthur Sakunts.

The petitioner demands from Ruben Hayrapetyan to make a public apology.
