COMPANY-TRICKED CITIZENS HOLD PROTEST IN ARMENIA’S CAPITAL
12:05 ~U 20.06.13
Clients of the Tonus company, who made prepayments for flats in a
new building and were deceived, are holding a protest in front of
the Armenian government.
Alexander Ghazaryan, Head of the Letter and Complaints Department,
came up to them, but his attempt to talk to them caused an argument.
The citizens accused the government of lying to them.
Some of the protesters were invited to the Ministry of Finance. The
citizens made prepayments for 120 flats and signed contracts for
seven years. However, the company has since deceived them.
The company caused damage to 155 citizens. The company owner, Ashot
Tonoyan, who was an MP from the Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP),
told them he had gone bankrupt.
The citizens are presenting their demands to Armenia’s government.
“They have not done anything for us. They have been lying to us for
seven years,” one of the citizens, Karina Nalbandyan, told Tert.am.
