On 19 September 2019, the Penitentiary Service submitted a negative report on early conditional release of life-sentenced convict N. Hunanyan. On 23 October 2019, the Probation Service submitted a negative report as well.

Taking into consideration the fact that the reports submitted by the 2 services were negative, on 28 October 2019, the administration of the penitentiary institution adopted a decision on not taking the matter on early conditional release of N. Hunanyan or replacement of the remaining part of the punishment with a milder type of punishment to the court. It may be appealed to the court of first instance of general jurisdiction within a period of ten days following its receipt.

*Notification: Where the decision of the administration of the penitentiary institution is not appealed, the matter may be discussed again in one and a half year after adopting the relevant decision, if the convict submits an application not earlier than 40 days before the expiry of the mentioned period of time. Where the decision of the administration of the penitentiary institution is appealed and the court rejects early conditional release, the matter may be discussed again in three years following the entry of the final judicial act into legal force, if the convict submits an application not earlier than 40 days before the expiry of the mentioned period of time.
