NO CASES OF COMPUTER CRIMES REGISTERED IN ARMENIA YET
YEREVAN, August 5 (Noyan Tapan). According to the official data, no
cases of computer crimes have been registered in Armenia, though it's
not excluded that they are committed. Olga Safarian, the Legal Adviser
of the Internews public organization, informed Noyan Tapan about
this. According to her, detection of computer crimes is rather
difficult process, as those committing such crimes are "very
literate." Besides, those who have suffered from computer crimes
aren't always interested in announcing about such crimes. In
particular, if a computer crime is committed in a bank system the
banks often don't want to declare this so as not to do harm to their
authority. In O.Safarian's opinion, problems may arise also while
practical application of the articles of the Criminal Code regarding
computer crimes, as they lack exact definitions.
