"Corruption noise in the structure headed by Yerevan Mayor Tigran Avinyan does not stop. According to armlur.am, five people have already been arrested in the framework of the criminal case revealed by the RA Anti-Corruption Committee.
Among them is the owner of the famous "Havanna" and Park Bridge restaurants, on suspicion of giving 25 million drams.
The problem, however, is not only this case. Such noises around the former Deputy Prime Minister Tigran Avinyan, a member of the CP Board, are repeated regularly with changing actors. One day, the city hall is arrested by employees, one day, the buildings of the circle, and almost all cases are a bribe.
The impression is that corruption is walking with Avinyan's shadow, system system, employee employee. The mayor must give a clear and public response. How does it turn out that the structure he heads regularly appears at the epicenter of corruption revelations? For the sake of Yerevan's trust, silence is unacceptable behavior.
Zhoghovurd daily tried to receive comments from Yerevan Mayor Hayk Kostanyan, who is always arrested for taking bribes, sponsors and other acts, but Tigran Avinyan is always unaware. "Yerevan Municipality cooperates with our law enforcement agencies.
As for the case, yes, the mayor is aware that the anti-corruption committee was operations in the second building of the Yerevan Municipality, "said the speaker.
