WHO ARE THE «OTHERS»?

Social

The RA Ombudsman has sent letters to the RA President and the head of the Courts Council where she has referred to several court decisions about confiscating the property of the citizens by the programs of Yerevan reconstruction. According to the decisions, the owners are obliged to sign a contract with the customer for the money he offers. By the same decision the owner, the enumerated people registered in the area and «other people occupying the area» are to be evicted.

Mentioning that the «other» people occupying the area must be evicted, the Court does not mention who these people are - deprived of the right of the court protection, who cannot participate in the trial.

For example, by the certificate given by the RA Civic Issues Court of Appeal, on May 1 owners Edward, Rudolf, and Angela Mouradyans, Sergey, Magdalena and Nelly Asoyans, as well as refugees Emma Aghajanyan and his two teenage children have been evicted from the house in Buzand 23 as «other» people.

The RA Ombudsman mentions that Emma Aghajanyan has not participated in the trial and her name is not mentioned in the court decision, but she and her sons have forcefully been evicted from the house as «other people».

As far as suchlike decisions tend to repeat, the Ombudsman has suggested that the Courts Council should make the issue subject for special discussion and evaluate suchlike decisions.
