License of casino belonging to Prosperous Armenia Party leader’s family is revoked

The lottery, winning games, Internet gaming, and casino licensing commission of the Ministry of Finance of Armenia has published—at its meeting on Wednesday—its conclusion stating that the license of Onira Club Casino is revoked.

In particular, the decision states that Onira Club LLC did not pay a quarter of the annual state fee for the license, as well as the fact that, by order of the minister of finance, execution of a violation that is the basis for the suspension of the license was applied as a measure of accountability against this company, and therefore the license of this casino was revoked. 

To note, the company that operates Casino Shangri La in Armenia is Onira Club, which is part of “Multi Group” Concern owned by the family of opposition Prosperous Armenia Party leader, MP, and business tycoon Gagik Tsarukyan
