ECHR to hear Perinçek’s case on January 28
11:46, 28 January 2015
YEREVAN, JANUARY 28, ARMENPRESS: The Armenian delegation is already in Strasburg. The preparatory works have been completed and the group of Armenian and foreign lawyers is getting ready for the trial on Doğu Perinçek’s case, which raised quite an interest in Armenia and Diaspora. Armenpress reports that the hearing will take place today, on January 28 at 12:15 Yerevan time.
The European Court of Human Rights will be holding a Grand Chamber hearing in the case of Perinçek on 28 January 2015. Armenia applied to be included as a third party in the case back in August 2014.
Internationally renowned attorney Amal Clooney, the wife of famous actor George Clooney, will defend Armenia’s interest at the European court. All six attorneys, who will be representing Armenia, are expected to address the ECHR.
On March 9 2007, the Swiss court had convicted Doğu Perinçek for denying the Armenian Genocide. On December 17 2013, the ECHR had ruled in favor of Perinçek’s lawsuit that was filed against Switzerland. Subsequently, the Government of Switzerland had decided to petition that the Dogu Perincek case be referred for a review by the ECHR Grand Chamber. Afterward, Armenia had petitioned to the ECHR, and it now acts as a third party in this case. Turkey as well has petitioned to take part in the trial.
