Yerevan September 7

Ani Mshetsyan. Former MP of the Armenian parliament Aragats Akhoyan filed a lawsuit against the Holy See of St. Echmiadzin for outstanding debts. "Holy Etchmiadzin owed a large sum of money to the construction company headed by me for the repair work, and I was forced to apply to the court, unable to make them pay the debts for many years," Akhoyan told a reporter.

He said that the construction company he owned for 7 years was repairing the Catholicosate, but the services were not paid for. "As a result, our company incurred substantial material losses: we want to restore justice and return the debt," the former MP noted.

It is noteworthy that before appealing to the court, he tried to solve the problem "amicably" through negotiations with the Catholicos of All Armenians Garegin II. "However, he again deceived us," Akhoyan said.

Nevertheless, the former MP risked and decided to try his luck a second time and sign another contract with the Holy See of St. Echmiadzin for the provision of construction services. "Last September we received another order from Echmiadzin, started to implement it and again received nothing, after which we broke the contract and held talks with the Catholicos. But since we did not manage to solve anything peacefully, we were deceived again, we filed a lawsuit in court, "Akhoyan concluded.
