ARMENIAN BUSINESSMAN SETTLES DEBT WITH YEZIDI FARMERS
01.08.2014 19:43 epress.am
Businessman Lyova Safaryan, whom 21 Yazidi farmers who raise livestock
have accused of fraud, claims that he "solved the problems" with
their families and they no longer have any demands.
Recall, the cattlemen had expressed their concerns through the media
in December 2013, saying that the businessman was posing as a friend
of National Assembly President Hovik Abrahamyan (pictured) and thus
gaining their trust, acquired milk from their cows on a loan which
he never repaid.
Safaryan, however, today informed Epress.am that he had nothing to do
with that transaction. "My friend bought that milk, and that friend of
mine is not in Armenia now. It's just that they began to mention names
of other people, for example, the president of the National Assembly.
I resolved this issue: I gave those people their money, so they no
longer speak [of this]," he said.
One of the creditors, Rustam Iboyan, in conversation with Epress.am,
confirmed that "they came to an agreement" with Safaryan. According
to him, Safaryan paid half the loan; the other half, he promised to
give at the end of the month.
Iboya had stated earlier that Safaryan personally bought the milk
from them. According to the Yezidi farmer, Safaryan answered their
phone calls by swearing and strongly denying that he mentioned Hovik
Abrahamyan's name. National Assembly president's press secretary, Gohar
Poghosyan, denied Safaryan having any links with Hovik Abrahamyan.
