Baku Military Court continued reading out the indictment in the case of Ruben Vardanyan

At the fourth hearing, the judge proceeded to read a multivolume document, much of it describing events unrelated to the philanthropist.

Ruben Vardanyan and his lawyer filed two motions. The court granted one of them: Vardanyan and his lawyer were allowed to confer in private.

Ruben Vardanyan also filed a motion to disqualify the judicial board. He pointed out that the panel ignored procedural violations at the investigation stage, showed disrespect for international law and made serious mistakes in translating the materials of the case.

Ruben Vardanyan’s lawyer backed up his words with references to legal norms and confirmed the procedural violations he had encountered during the investigation. However, the court did not consider the motion to disqualify the judicial board during the hearing.
