"Zhoghovurd" daily writes: "According to the exclusive information of "Zhoghovurd" daily, the brother of the former RA Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan, Henrik (Jonik) Abrahamyan, gave a self-confessed testimony in the Anti-Corruption Committee.
According to our sources, after testifying, Abrahamyan also recovered 26 million drams as part of the damage caused by the proceedings.
According to the information of "Zhoghovurd" daily newspaper, the Anti-Corruption Committee, taking into account these circumstances, chose the prohibition of absence as a preventive measure against Henrik Abrahamyan.
To remind, early yesterday morning, ArmLur.am was the first to report that Henrik Abrahamyan, the brother of former RA Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan, was arrested.
Later, the Anti-corruption Committee officially confirmed the information, stating that Henrik Abrahamyan was arrested as part of the criminal proceedings regarding cases of abuse of official powers by an official, aiding in this act, committing official forgery and using a forged document.
It should be noted that Henrik Abrahamyan is not the first time in the field of law enforcement. He managed the Artashat wine factory in different years, and in 1999-2008 he was a deputy of the National Assembly. His name has been associated with a number of companies operating in the fields of wine and building materials production, as well as fish farming: "Artashat Vincon", "Jas-Beton Sheen" and "Mary Fish".
In 2018, Henrik Abrahamyan was arrested in the case of a large amount of weapons and ammunition found in the territory of Mkhchyan. In 2022, the court found him guilty of acquiring and possessing illegal weapons and ammunition, sentencing him to 2 years in prison. However, he was freed from serving the sentence by applying the amnesty.
I have left the wording "self-confessional testimony" as information from your source, not as established fact, because this is an important distinction from a legal point of view.
