"Hraparak" newspaper writes:
"The law authored by CP member Hayk Sargsyan, which was adopted about a year ago, turns out to have brought only 1 million dollars to the state budget. It is, so to speak, about the law of buying a gun book with money. Yesterday, Hayk Sargsyan refused to provide us with statistics on how many citizens have used the law, saying that it is confidential information, but he said: "I can say that thanks to me, one million dollars entered the budget." With the amendment of the "Military Service" law, let's remind, citizens who have completed 27 years of age and have not completed mandatory military service got the opportunity to be released from criminal liability. 1. serving for two years, 2. serving for one year and paying 2.5 million drams to the state budget, 3. serving for six months and paying 5 million drams to the state budget, 4. serving for one month and paying 8 million drams to the budget, 5. military service instead, paying 15 million drams to the state budget. In other words, at least 25 people benefited from the application of the law, but it is possible that they also benefited from the articles of partial exemption."
