During the Parliament debate Zaruhi Pastanjyan asked the Finance Minister Gagik Khachatryan how it was possible to give some pretty expensive apartments to different prosecutor and police officials on the budget. Namely the Deputy Prosecutor, General Prosecutor and other senior officials in opposition, she said that at least 28 persons in public service are provided with houses that cost round 117 thousand dollars. The apartments were bought from 2 private companies without a competitive basis. “Why were those people given the expensive flats when the mentioned people did not need it, they even have their own properties.”
Gagik Khachatryan didn`t deny that there was such purchase by budget means. In this regard Naira Zohrabyan talked to “Aravot.am” and said that it was an outrageous corruption in fact.
Zaruhi Pastanjyan -“I replied from my seat that if they were socially in need, what was the purpose of giving that expensive houses to that people that cost 117 thousands of dollars. One can buy a huge house in the city center.”
