Irate neighbors opposed to the building of a high-rise luxury
residential building on Nalbandyan Street in Yerevan have sent an open
letter to Hovik Abrahamyan, recently appointed to head Armenia’s new
parliament, implying that he is involved in the construction project
despite his denials to the contrary.

Residents argue that is more than coincidental that work at the
site has recommenced after months of inactivity immediately after
reports started to circulate that Abrahamyan was picked for the post
of parliament president.

They say that while Gevorg Mardanyan, a businessman living in Moscow,
is officially listed as the developer, it is widely accepted that
such a large tract of prime Yerevan real estate cannot be obtained
without the support of people in high positions of power.

Residents argue that the only way to put these rumors to rest would
be for Abrahamyan to intervene and come up with a just and equitable
solution to the building issue.
