The Supreme Judicial Council of Armenia has suspended the powers of the judges of the Yerevan Court of General Jurisdiction for the criminal cases of Asis Malkonian and Gheburg Foghosyan. This was reported on the council's official website.
The decision was made on the basis of a petition by the Attorney General, which was received on November 13. The powers of the judges were suspended until the end of the criminal case.
Earlier, several media outlets reported that a criminal case had been opened against Malkonian and Pogosyan on suspicion of abuse of power.
According to media reports, the basis for criminal prosecution were court decisions that allowed a number of defendants in criminal cases to leave the territory of Armenia.
