“Hraparak” newspaper writes:

“Aragatsotn Marzpetaran has signed 5 contracts with “Shinexpert” LLC for monitoring the construction of kindergartens.

They were signed on the same day, on May 5, without a tender, through the purchase procedure from one person, with a total value of about 7 million drams.

“Shineexprt” company was founded in 2010 by architect Suren Abovyan, who has been the chief architect of Vanadzor since 2016. A year after assuming the position, in 2017, Abovyan left the management of the Shinexprt company, transferred 100 percent of the shares of the LLC to the company’s employees, but nothing happens in the company without his knowledge.

This company, especially during Pashinyan’s rule, carries out author control of the construction of kindergartens by order of Vanadzor Municipality. Now the company has expanded its geography and provides surveillance services in Aragatsotn region as well.

Let’s note that before the signing of the mentioned 5 large contracts, the regional administration did not sign any contract with this company.

Suren Abovyan’s Facebook page revealed his political views. He actively shares Facebook posts of KP governor Aren Mkrtchyan and materials posted by other KP members. He is also active, writing comments in support of CP under various posts.”
