group of Armenians arrested in the USA.

stolen in the USA. In particular, the Yerevan-based Haykakan Zhamanak
opposition daily reports that FBI in cooperation with the National
Security Council of Armenia is going to find out the spheres where
the stolen funds were invested in.

the USA say that when the latter arrived in Armenia in 2000 he was
welcomed at the airport by the incumbent president of Armenia Serzh
Sargsyan then Head of the president Robert Kocharyan's staff. Later
when Prime Minister of that period Aram Sargsyan charged arrested Pzo,
Serzh Sargsyan personally asked Aram Sargsyan to set him free.

largest Medicare fraud scheme ever perpetrated by a single criminal
enterprise in Medicare program's history have been arrested in the

California, Georgia, New Mexico, New York and Ohio, being art and part
in this sphere, have been detained. Among the detained is head of the
criminal group Armen Ghazaryan, a native of the USSR, a thief in law.
He is currently in custody in Los Angeles. The defendants in the New
York case had stolen the identities of doctors and set up 118 phantom
clinics in 25 States. The names were used to submit fake bills for
over 100 million dollars for care that was never given.
