ARMENIAN KEEPS A LOW PROFILE
Standard, Kenya
March 21 2006
The man at the centre of the mercenary saga, Artur Margaryan, kept
a low profile on Monday.
He was not available at his Runda Estate for an interview and
neighbours said he had left early in the morning. He was spotted along
Mombasa Road in the company of businessman Raju Sanghani handling
electronic equipment.
Witnesses told The Standard that the two were offloading the equipment
at a warehouse with their employees.
"The work was done very fast and the loaders were paid promptly.
There were television sets and radios," said a witness who said he
had been seeing the two at the premises since January.
The Armenian has claimed that he is a dealer in electronic equipment,
manufacturing and real estate.
Murage denies link to Armenian brothers
Standard Reporter
President Kibaki's special advisor, Mr Stanley Murage, has denied
meeting the two Armenian brothers at the centre of the mercenary saga.
Murage on Monday said Press reports that he had met Mr Artur Sargasyan
and Artur Margaryan were untrue, and that he had not facilitated any
meeting at State House as reported.
It was on Monday reported that Murage was in trouble after First Lady
Lucy Kibaki believed that he had met the two last month.
"Indeed, State House did officially confirm last week that no such
meeting took place and termed the utterances as propaganda by sections
of politicians," Murage said in a statement last evening.
