"We are improving administration, but they cry we are killing people
at the customs. Nobody is going to kill anyone," Head of the RE State
Revenues Committee Gagik Khachatryan told reporters.
He refuted the report on unexpected inspections at the SIL Concern
owned by the disgraced oligarch Khachatur Sukiasyan. The article as
published by the Haykakan Zhamanak (Armenian Times) newspaper.
Khachatryan also commented on the fuss about inspectors’ recent
"attack" on the jewelry market: "Are you going to act as their
advocates? What is the reason?"
"They have been working as they liked for so many years. Now that
we have installed 8,000 cash registers and are trying to legalize
the trade they have raised a clamor. Law prohibits trade in terms of
foreign currency, let them not," Khachatryan said.
In conclusion he promised tax and customs revenues will be ensured
next year.
