On September 20, an extraordinary meeting of the Voskepar community
council, region of Tavush, took place at the request of 4 out of its
5 members. The members of the council
expressed their protest against using the public service car of the
local administration, VAZ 2107, for personal purposes.
The members of the council also stated that they were afraid that the
public service vehicle would be used in Voskepar for bringing voters
to polling stations on the day of local elections, September 23.
Shortly after the meeting, that public service car left for Yerevan.
Amram Aghbalyan, the driver, is long-standing Republican Party of
Armenia (RPA) leader Amram Aghbalyan's father's uncle's grandson.
Being a graduate of a technical college (he graduated from a radio
engineering college), he directs the village house of culture and
works as a driver. Having a personal car, that day he went to Yerevan
driving the public service car to bring his mother who was coming from
Russia to participate in the September 23 election to Voskepar.
At the council meeting, the council members also raised the issue of
purposefully using the 3 million AMD contributed by businessman
Mikayel Vardanyan to renovate and furnish the Voskepar house of
culture. The village headman said that they would come back to this
issue after the September 23 election.
The council members said that many workers of the village
administration were the relatives of village headman Hrush Aghbalyan.
Ishkhan Aghbalyan, the deputy village headman, is Hrush Aghbalyan's
father's uncle's son, the accountant of the village administration is
Ishkhan's wife and librarian Nara Siradeghyan is the village headman's
uncle's daughter-in-law.
We called Hrush Aghbalyan, the headman of Voskepar, to get an
explanation regarding these issues, however, he didn't answer our
calls, then he became temporarily unreachable.
