The health of Armenia's second president, Robert Kocharyan, has deteriorated during proceedings related to a motion to impose detention as a pretrial measure. Information regarding the incident was released by the Anti-Corruption Committee.
The emergency medical team on-site recorded high blood pressure, leading to the decision to immediately transfer the former president to a medical facility for necessary follow-up examinations.
Robert Kocharyan's transfer to a medical facility is significant in the context of the judicial proceedings, as it directly impacts the timeline for the motion on pretrial detention currently being reviewed by the court. In such situations, the deliberation of a detention motion is typically suspended until the individual's health condition stabilizes.
The question now arises as to how the medical report will affect the future course of the case. We will continue to monitor the developments and the eventual resumption of the court hearing.
