Preliminary investigation in case of Hrayr Tovmasyan and his godson  completed

ArmInfo. The preliminary investigation in the case of the President of the Constitutional  Court Hrayr Tovmasyan and his godson Norayr Panosyan has been  completed. According to the information of the Special Investigation  Service, the body conducting the proceedings considered the evidence  obtained sufficient to draw up an indictment and refer the case to  court.

Earlier, the investigation established that the former employee of   the Ministry of Justice of Armenia Norayr Panosyan, holding the post   of head of the Legislation Inspection Inspectorate in the Ministry of   Justice in 2011-2014, together with a number of other officials,   deprived two notaries of the opportunity to register their work   premises for free use. Panosyan wanted to purchase these premises   himself. To do this, he agreed with the employees of the Ministry of   Justice and the City Hall of Yerevan, who organized fictitious   auctions for the sale of these premises, at prices significantly   lower than market prices.

In particular, the territory in the 1st dead end of Baghramyan   Avenue, with a market value of 63.4 million drams (about 133 thousand   dollars), was sold for 47.5 million, and on Bagratunyats Street,   worth 33.5 million (70 thousand dollars) ), - for 3.8 million.

These territories belonged to the Municipality of Yerevan, which as a   result received less income, and notaries lost their free territory   for work. Also detained was an employee of ZAO Land and Real Estate   Operations Tigran Ter-Harutyunov, who gave an underestimated   assessment of real estate.  Pansyan and Tovmasyan were charged with  abuse of power, which entailed negligent grave consequences.
