Freezing injunction imposed over some of Serzh Sargsyan’s assets
Former President Serzh Sargsyan’s assets have been frozen amid an ongoing investigation, authorities said.
Sargsyan is suspected in abuse of power and embezzlement of nearly half a billion drams during his tenure as president through a businessman Barsegh Beglaryan, who in turn is also facing criminal charges.
The assets of Barsegh Beglaryan, the head of FLASH, a petroleum company based in Armenia, were also frozen.
