The Armenian authorities put the eye on the property of philanthropists
from Diaspora the Harutyunyans, the founder of "Narekatsi" art union,
philanthropist and businessman Narek Harutyunyan told journalists
today.
"Unfortunately, the authorities of the republic seem to be interested
in the art and charity a little. They are interested only in the
money. Just for this reason, over the last 10 months our family and me
personally have found ourselves in the center of the court performances
performed by representatives of the authorities. The reason was 1,5
mln drams taxes which allegedly were not paid by me for activity of
our business which our family has been doing parallel to activity of
the "Narekatsi" union", - he said.
Harutyunyan assured that the business headed by him has no debt to
the state, and it has even repaid more than 20 mln drams taxes to
the budget. Nevertheless, it did not hinder tax, law-enforcement
and administrative structures to seize businessman's property and
accounts. "All this became possible thanks to false evidence of Sevak
Artsruni, being our agent earlier, on the basis of which all these
structures have been taking these strange and unfounded steps", -
he said.
The businessman is sure that all this has the only purpose - to
misappropriate the real estate that belongs to the Harutyunyans family
in Armenia and which the Armenian authorities put the eye on.
"However, we are not going to yield and will fight injustice and
illegality till final victory. It is very much easy to shut down all
our projects in Armenia, but we are not at all going to do it", -
Harutyunyan concluded.
