On November 13 the RA Civil Court of Appeal under the presidency of the Judge Gohar Matinyan will publish the decision regarding the appeal complaint on the case Ghevond Ghalumyan against an American businessman of Armenian origin Edmond Khudyan.

Ghevond Ghalumyan appeals the decision of the Court of Center and Norq Marash administrative districts of Yerevan under the presidency of the Judge Gagik Khandanyan from November 11 about public apologies and compensation in the amount of 1 luma in the light of the damage caused to his dignity and pride.

The plaintiff Ghevond Ghalumyan brings as basis of his demand the damage caused to his dignity and pride by Edmond Khudyan through the article published in the ‘Armenian Times’ newspaper titled ‘The history of the ‘sold’ Diaspora Armenian’, where the interview with Edmond Khudyan was published. The latter noted that ‘the company was ‘sold’, the organizer was Vladislav Mangasaryan, his friend Ghevond Ghalumyan, they are partners for more than 10 years and Edward Yesayan, who was my childhood friend, agreed to cooperate with them and realized the whole plunder, afterwards they started reselling all the sold territories’.

In a certain case, it was indicated in the decision of the investigator of the Investigation Department of the RA SRC adjacent to the Government from 03.05.2011 in accordance with the requirements of Article 193 of the RA Criminal Code /intentional bankruptcy/ to initiate a criminal case and send it under investigation, that ‘while preparing the materials it was found out that many citizens having signed initial trading contracts with the company did not receive apartments; the company sold apartments in April, May and June and did not fulfill the tax obligations with respect to the state budget as a result of those contracts, the financial means were not reflected in the payments book of the company and were used for other purposes’. According to Edmond Khudyan the final judicial act on the criminal case can have an important meaning for the multisided and objective solution of the civil case; apparently the statements made by the defendant will be either denied or confirmed on the criminal case. Thus the criminal case proceedings are impossible without the final judicial act on the indicated criminal case. The Court also found that the criminal case proceedings should be averted until the final decision on the criminal case.
