In one of the villages of Ararat Region the mayor of the village
collected taxes on land and property and instead of transferring 3
million drams to the community budget he went to the nearest casino
and lost the whole sum.

Now he is trying to persuade the relevant agencies that the people of
the village have no money and is only trying to collect the bills. By
the way, the people of the neighboring village who are in the same
social situation have performed over 50 percent of the budget.
