NEW POLICE DIVISIONS TO FIGHT INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CRIMES

YEREVAN, JANUARY 14, ARMENPRESS: Armenian Police press office
denied today some press reports that new divisions in the police set
up to fight against crimes committed in the area of intellectual
property would replicate notorious Soviet-time departments, which
were fighting against embezzlement of public funds.
A press release, distributed by the press office, said such
divisions exist in all developed countries. It said Armenia as a
member of the World Trade Organization (WTO) has assumed obligations
to fight intellectual property violation crimes.
The police said fighting against copy rights crimes is important
in terms of ensuring economic development, adding also that such
crimes are punishable under Armenia’s new Criminal Code.
