Haykakan Zhamanak: Bankrupt Armavia's owner leaves Armenia
09:55 * 01.03.14
The former employees of Armavia, Armenia's national airline that went
bankrupt last year, are said to be voicing alarm that the company's
owner, Mikhail Baghdasarov, has left Armenia forever without paying
their debts.
The debt to each of the 40 pilots hired by the company is within the
range of 6-20 million Drams ($15,000-$20,000), says the paper, adding
that the unpaid salaries to the air hostesses amounts to 2 million
($5,000).
Several Armavia employees have reportedly told Haykakan Zhamanak that
Baghdasarov sold two aircrafts back in December, but that apparently
didn't save the situation, says the paper, as they still are waiting
for their wages. They expressed serious doubts that Baghdasarov will
not return, according to the paper.
Mika Limited, another company owned by Baghdasarov, later denied the
reports. A source speaking to the paper reportedly said that
Baghdasarov's trips to Moscow bear a regular character.
