Second criminal case launched against former head of Armenian Football Federation

Arminfo, Armenia

ArmInfo. A second criminal case has been opened against the former president of the Football Federation of Armenia Ruben Hayrapetyan.

According to the press service of the RA Police, in 2014 Ruben  Hayrapetyan on behalf of the FFA refused land worth 800 million drams  per benefit of the mayor's office of Yerevan. After that, with the  help of the then mayor of Yerevan, Taron Margaryan and other  officials of the Yerevan municipality, a fictitious auction was held  in 2015, as a result of which land was acquired in parts for only 169  million drams by persons having ties with the head of the FFA. This  was followed by the signing of a number of documents on the transfer  of land as a gift, in the end, it was registered with members of the  Hayrapetyan family and his relatives.

In addition, the head of the FFA in 2017 first sold his "Porche  Cayenne Turbo" to one of his close associates for 2 million drams,  and two months later the Federation bought this car for 25.7 million  drams (the real value of about 6.5 million).

A criminal case has been opened, the materials have been sent to the  Special Investigation Service.

To recall, on May 21, the Investigative Committee opened a criminal  case against Hayrapetyan, accusing him and his son of arbitrariness,  deliberate and illegal deprivation of liberty. The court of general  jurisdiction of Yerevan granted the arrest of the former president of  the Football Federation of Armenia. On May 27 he was put on the  wanted list.
