Lawyer: Anti-Corruption Court of Appeals overturns house arrest for Samvel Karapetyan
ArmInfo. The Anti-Corruption Court of Appeals has overturned a previous ruling by Judge Sargis Petrosyan of the Armenian Anti-Corruption Court placing Samvel Karapetyan, Russian-Armenian businessman and head of the Tashir Group of Companies, under house arrest. Lawyer Ruben Hakobyan shared this information in an interview with journalists.
As the lawyer clarified, the judge invalidated two verdicts: the initial decision to launch criminal proceedings and the subsequent ruling issued based on the case. In this regard, the lawyer noted that there is a possibility that Karapetyan could be placed under arrest again, but emphasized that he cannot provide an exact forecast until he has thoroughly reviewed the text of the court decision, which consists of 8 pages.
