The names of five members of the medical commission were confirmed at Monday’s urgent Yerevan court session that was convened in connection with in the health condition of Dr. Armen Charchyan, the imprisoned MP from the opposition "Armenia" Faction in the National Assembly and former director of Izmirlian Medical Center of Yerevan.

These five physicians said that they had no kinship with Charchyan.

The court informed that five more experts shall be selected for this medical commission.

Subsequently, the court session was adjourned because not all the experts were in the courtroom.

The next court hearing was set for Tuesday.

On August 23, the Criminal Court of Appeal had granted the prosecution’s appeal against the lower court’s decision to release Armen Charchyan on bail. After this appellate court decision, Armen Charchyan had gone to a Yerevan penitentiary on his own initiative, and was arrested there. But On August 30, it became known that Charchyan's health condition had deteriorated and he was taken to Yerevan civic hospital.

Charchyan had suffered an acute heart attack on August 24, has severe diabetes, and is taking 92 units of insulin which is incompatible with his being in custody—and this incompatibility is confirmed by a government decision, too.

Armen Charchyan is charged with electoral fraud.
