Reports on Armenian Officials’ Unjust Accumulation of Wealth Simply
Journalists’ Assumptions?
14:54 – 05.03.10
A widespread viewpoint that Armenian officials accumulate their
property through unjust and illegal means – first reported by a few
Russian media and then by the Armenian press – has stirred up heating
discussion over the issue recently.
`Those are just assumptions made by journalists,’ Hunan Poghosyan,
head of the General Department of Fight against Organized Crime of RA
Police, said at a press conference today in reference to media reports
on Armenian officials’ accumulation of wealth.
According to Poghosyan, those media sources that publish such articles
are only making assumptions about the property of this or that
official. In his words, no comment is necessary
`I do not take them seriously,’ said Poghosyan, confirming that the
police do not take those cases as cause for alarm on economic crime.
