Hovhannes Ghukasyan, the owner of Milano, one of the oldest and most
expensive boutiques in Yerevan, starts his days with new surprises.
According to a court decision, the territory of the boutique located
at 4 Abovyan Street was declared a zone of prevailing public interest
in 2010. And now the new owner of the area, Diaspora-Armenian Avedis
Karagulian, has filed a lawsuit against the ex-owner claiming that
Ghukasyan has tax liabilities for the property.
"If the court approves that there are tax liabilities in connection
with the sale of property, in that case the entire money will be paid
to the state in the form of taxes," Tigran Hayrapetyan, member of
the Olymp Company representing the interests of Hovhannes Ghukasyan,
told A1+.
Ghukasyan was evicted from the area not only as owner of "Olymp"
LTD but also as a physical person from his own house. Despite the
eviction, Ghukasyan has not yet received compensation from the new
owner of the area. Karagulian had offered Ghukasyan over 200 million
dram compensation only for the first floor (125 square meters) of
the building. The store has three floors, not considering the roof
and the basement. Ghukasyan has received only the offered 200 million
drams and demands full compensation for the area.
Tigran Hayrapetyan added that Ghukasyan's daughter Nelly Ghukasyan,
who is also the assistant director of the trade hall, has received
asylum in the USA.
"After studying the case material courts in the US found that the
verdict in the Milano case was unfair and granted asylum to Nelly
Ghukasyan," said the lawyer.
