On June 12, the Media Centre hosts a discussion on the case of the diseased serviceman Hayk Movsisyan, who died in Shushi jail in 2012.

Guests at the studio will be Artur Sakunts, Chairman of Helsinki Citizens' Assembly - Vanadzor, and Heghine Petrosyan, the mother of the diseased serviceman.

On November 20, 2012, the Court of General Jurisdiction of Syunik province found Movsisyan guilty for evading military service and sentenced him to 3 years' imprisonment.

Heghine Petrosyan claims that her son was killed and didn't commit a suicide by hanging. Six months have passed ever since but Heghine Petrosyan has not been recognized as the legal successor of the injured party.

On April 13 of 2013, Hayk Movsisyan was posthumously recognized innocent by the Court of Appeals, based on the petition submitted by Prosecutor General Aghvan Hovsepyan.

A1+ will be live-streaming the discussion.
