Georgian prosecutors in the case of jailed Javakhk Armenian activist and head of the "United Javakhk Alliance" Vahagn Chakhalyan have yet to hand over the arms and ammunition allegedly taken from his house and the Javakhk Youth Sports and Cultural Center to the proper authorities for ballistics testing. The Georgian Appeals Court had decided in favor of a motion by Vahagn Chakhalyan's lawyer, Nino Andriashvili, a member of the Georgian "Human Rights Center NGO", to have the arms tested by an independent expert. However, attorney Andriashvili states that prosecutors have yet to hand over the weapons in their possession for testing. In a phone conversation with "Hetq", the attorney said that he had spoken with the judge's assistant who said that before leaving for vacation the judge had directed the prosecutor to hand over the weapons to the independent examiner for testing. The deadline for the testing had since passed. "I called up the judge's office again and spoke with the assistant who said that the judge hadn't returned to Tbilisi. I also called the prosecutor but the phone had been disconnected. I am at a loss what to do. We will be forced to once again motion for an examination at the next trial session on September 18. The judge might respond by saying that the trial is being delayed and pass sentence without a ballistics examination. We can't let this happen. We are not to blame. The prosecution is doing everything it can to see that an examination doesn't happen," Nino Andriashvili said.
