One hour before the start of today’s slander trial pitting plaintiff Tereza Shahverdyan against Hetq reporter Adrineh Torosyan, the court informed the reporter that Shahverdyan had dropped the charges.
Today’s scheduled trial in the case pitting Tereza Shahverdyan, a Dean at the Vanadzor Pedagogical Institute, against Hetq reporter Andrineh Torosyan, had to be postponed for a third time.
Lusineh Ashughyan, who claims she was illegally dismissed from her teaching job at the Vanadzor Pedagogical Institute, will be taking her case to the RA Court of Cassation.
Despite the fact that Yeghiazaryan was not legally authorized to represent the defendant, Vanadzor Institute, the Appeals Court nevertheless accepted the response he presented to the court.
Tereza Shahverdyan, a Dean at the Vanadzor Pedagogical Institute, has dropped her 2 million AMD compensation demand of Hetq reporter Andrineh Torosyan to 200,000 AMD
In an attempt to prove her point that employment processes were being rigged at the school, defendant Ashoughyan brought to the court’s attention the matter of the 2011 election to hire a dean for the pedagogical faculty.
The slander suit launched by Gurgen Khachatryan, Rector of the Vanadzor Pedagogical Institute, against former instructor Lusineh Ashoughyan is continuing at the Vanadzor Regional Court.
Hetq has been named a third party litigant in the case based on an artcicle it published on May 13 entitled "Unhealthy Passions at the Vanadzor Pedagogical Institute".
