"Zhoghovurd" daily writes:
"The anti-corruption committee, which has been without a leader for two weeks due to Nikol Pashinyan's light hand, will soon prepare for the elections of the committee's chairman, which is a long process. A competition for the elections of the chairman of the anti-corruption committee must be announced first, and then a selection committee should be formed.
After the departure of Sasun Khachatryan via sms, the Anti-Corruption Committee is headed by Pashinyan's long-time acquaintance, the head of the "March 1" investigative group, colonel of justice Edik Hakobyan, as the acting president. It should be noted that Edik Hakobyan was the detainer of "Bread Bringer" Artur Sargsyan, who in the spring of 2024 was awarded the rank of third-class state councilor by order of the President of RA.
And what assets does Edik Hakobyan, acting chairman of the Anti-Corruption Committee, have? "Zhoghovurd" daily newspaper studied his declaration of real estate, income, interests and expenses for 2023, according to which the deputy chairman of the Anti-Corruption Committee declared 2 real estates: 1 individual residential house, 1 plot of land . In 2023, Hakobyan bought a 2022 Lexus brand car, which cost 15 million 300 thousand AMD. The balances of his bank accounts amounted to almost 800 thousand drams, which increased by almost 500 thousand drams compared to the previous year. The cash funds amounted to 2 million 400 thousand drams (the cash funds almost doubled).
Compared to the previous year, 2022, annual revenues have increased by almost 4 million drams. The income of the deputy chairman of the committee for the reporting year amounted to 44 million 369 thousand drams, of which 27 million 840 thousand are wages from the RA Anti-Corruption Committee. The balance of the principal amount of loans and borrowings received by Edik Hakobyan as of December 31 of the reporting year was 35 million 437 thousand drams of which 21 million 313 thousand is the balance of the principal amount of the apartment mortgage, why? that's why Hakobyan received 2 million 875 thousand drams from the RA State Revenue Committee to repay the principal amount of the mortgage according to the income tax refund law. 8 million 222 thousand drams were allocated to repaying the loan. Let's remember and not forget the legendary "face-to-tail corruption", which did not pass by Edik Hakobyan's family indifferently either.
Hakobyan's wife, Anna Khachatryan, is the principal of the Yerevan Nerses Mets primary school No. 124, and Armenak Hakobyan, who lives together with them, works as a guard at the same school. This is what the property of the current acting chairman of the Anti-Corruption Committee is like.
