Recently, at the initiative of daily Azg, Hakob Charoyan held a press
conference. For many times he spoke of the illegal actions taken
against him by the prosecutor’s office. This time, again, Mr. Charoyan
directly accused definite officials of the Prosecutor’s Office of
corruption. Emphasizing that he is well aware of the things he said,
he stated that the reason for the groundless suit instituted against
him was corruption. He said that Varuzhan Tamazian, head of Chochkan
village, who was sentenced to imprisonment twice, corrupted Albert
Margarian, prosecutor of Gegharquniq region, as well as Hovsep Sargsian
and Vartan Avetisian, inspectors of the prosecutor’s office. Varuzhan
Tamazian aimed to take over Hakob Charoyan’s mill.

Hakob Charoyan is determined to continue his struggle even at the
European Court to restore his good name and honor and to punish the
officials that took illegal actions against him.

By the way, only thee of over dozen TV companies that were invited
to the press conference came. And only “Ar” TV highlighted this
event. Most likely, the reason is that “the independent” TV companies
fell under the pressure of the Prosecutor’s Office.
