Artur Sukoyan, an aide to MP Levon Kocharyan of the Armenia faction in the National Assembly, has filed a lawsuit against the National Assembly staff, demanding that he be allowed to enter the parliament building. The court has accepted the case for proceedings. He was barred from entering on October 29 after an incident with National Assembly Vice Speaker Vahagn Aleksanyan. Sukoyan insists that nothing out of the ordinary happened.
