Lawyers of Lydian Armenia have filed a lawsuit against NA MP Sergey Bagratyan demanding public rejection of the statement he voiced on February 17 in Jermuk and in particular the following, “Dear people, the issue is very simple, there is trivial truth, it is not serious for us to treat it seriously, as the former authorities took bribe from them and allowed, I state about it with the whole responsibility…”

The company demands publishing rejection in at least 1,000 examples, in a newspaper spread throughout the whole country in a week after the verdict enters into force, under the title “Rejection” with the following content: “The information voiced by Sergey Bagratyan on 17/02/2019 in Jermuk educational center at the familiarizing meeting with the MPs considered defamatory and relating to giving bribe to former authorities by Lydian company, does not correspond to reality.”

The company also demands money compensation from the MP.
