    DIASPORA BUSINESSMAN SWINDLED AND CHEATED IN ARMENIA

    Serzh Sargsyan's brother Levon Sargsyan is involved in at least one
    large-scale fraud, "Zhamanak" daily editor Arman Babajanyan said
    on Friday.

    With the participation of Levon Sargsyan, US Armenian businessman
    Edmond Khudyan, who invested over 5 million dollars in Armenia,
    was made bankrupt.

    Who are Levon Sargsyan's 'accomplices'?

    Vice President of the Chamber of the Advocates Nikolay Baghdasaryan
    named businessmen Vladislav Mangasryan and Edik Yesayan who
    appropriated Khudyan's properties without his knowledge and pocketed
    millions of dollars.

    According to Arman Babajanyan, Levon Sargsyan is the 'godfather'
    of this trickery.

    "It was Levon Sargsyan who introduced Vladislav Mangasryan to Edmond
    Khudyan and sponsored all illegal transactions throughout that time,"
    said the chief editor of Zhamanak daily.

    Edmond Khudyan, who was participating in the news conference via
    Skype also gave the name of Serzh Sargsyan's brother saying he 'made
    investments in Armenia on Sargsyan's advice.'

    What happened in reality?

    Edmond Khudyan invested 5 million dollars in Armenia and developed
    a high-rise building in the center of Yerevan. His partner and
    contractor was Vladislav Mangasryan. Khudyan appointed Edik Yesayan,
    his long-time friend, as director of the company.

    In 2010, Vladislav Mangasryan, and EdikYesayan mutually decided to
    sell the flats and pocket the money without Khudyan's knowledge. Later
    they claimed that it was done to save the company from bankruptcy,
    for everybody's benefit.

    Since then E. Khudyan placed several lawsuits against the parties
    to return stolen properties and to bring them to justice but those
    efforts have been unsuccessful.

    The lawyers today presented two similar cases of swindle masterminded
    by the same people. They are going to establish a foundation that
    will defend the rights of Diaspora businessmen.
