Court of Appeal satisfies a motion to change measure of restraint against activist Vardges Gaspari
The Court of Appeal has satisfied the motion of activist Vadges Gaspari's lawyer to change the measure of restraint against Gaspari.
To recall, activist Vardges Gaspari was arrested by the decision of the regular court of Shengavit administrative district of Yerevan. He was not present at the court session.
Gaspari's lawyer David Gyurjyan said that the verdict delivered in the absence of the defendant is a violation of the law. Following the court hearing, the law enforcers went to the activist's house and took him to the police station. The activist's lawyer applied to the Court of Appeal against the regular court's judgment. Gaspari's traditional form of protest against the oligarchs and the police is to lie on the ground. He has repeatedly been fined for such demonstrations.
