The First Instance Criminal Court of General Jurisdiction of Yerevan City has rejected the motion of the lawyers of our office, Arsen Sardaryan, and Edgar Ayvazyan, to apply detention as a preventive measure against their client, F.G., a citizen of the Islamic Republic of Iran, who was accused of using a forged passport and illegally crossing the state border of the Republic of Armenia. Instead, the court selected administrative supervision, bail, and a prohibition on leaving as preventive measures for F.G. We are grateful to Judge Martin Arzumanyan for conducting a lawful, adversarial trial, as well as for issuing an exceptional, humanitarian, and well-reasoned judicial act.
