If the Government seizes a territory for some public purposes but
does not use it for more than two years, that territory should be
given back to its former owner, Hayk Alumyan, the lawyer of the ex
owner of Milano shop Hovhannes Ghukasyan told journalists on Monday.
He said that following Alumyan's appeal to the European Court, the
Government notified Ghukasyan that he has been fined for not paying
a tax for the third floor of the building.
"My client bought the building in 1995 as a two-storied facility. Four
years ago the Government took it away from him as a one-storied
facility and has paid just 180mln AMD of the offered 270mln AMD. The
rest has been charged as a fine for not paying a tax for the third
floor," Alumyan said.
He wonders why the Government supports the current owner of the
building, Avo LLC, to the detriment of its own citizens. "The point
is that should the European Court rule that the former owner should
be paid compensation, that money will be paid by the Government rather
than the current owner," Alumyan said.
