Today charges were filed against Saribek Sukiasian, Chairman of Arm
Armeconombank Board, under Article 133 of the RA Criminal Code
(involvement in a group conspiracy to take the life of another from
mercenary motives) which envisages prison sentence up to 3-5 years.
"I refused to sign any document as they are groundless. This is a
trumped-up case," Saribek Sukiasian announced today.
"They simply want to snatch our business (Byuregh Ltd) from our hands
and smear our good name. The political motives are evident. I want to
inform everyone that they cannot break our will by chasing the
Sukiasians family and filing unfounded charges against us. I hope it
doesn’t reach the point when we are forced to disclose the names of
all those in the group of bandits. We only follow a business
perspective in all we do," said Mr. Sukiasian.
Saribek Sukiasyan, the younger brother of pro-opposition businessman
and former MP Khachatur Sukiasyan, was detained for 72 hours last
Friday on suspicion of illegally possessing a gun and threatening to
kill Audit Ltd. Director Gor Davtyan.
