The Anti-Corruption Committee has announced that it has arrested four individuals and dismantled an organized vote-buying scheme which involved former high-ranking officials, including Arman Sahakyan, the ex-head of the State Property Management Department, who was taken into custody earlier today.
Two of the four suspects have been placed in pre-trial detention by a court.
The law enforcement agency also released an audio recording obtained during surveillance, which appears to capture a conversation between the suspects discussing the alleged scheme.
Authorities said the investigation is focused on identifying possible accomplices of the suspects.
