Aggression of tax officers at “Antares” (video)
Yesterday at “Antares” publishing house Tax Service employees of Ministry of Finances attacked Director of the publishing house Armen Martirosyan and advocate Tigran Yegoryan. They even didn’t show their certificates and said that they were operative explorers. They presented an excerpt according to which they had right to search “Antares” publishing house. There was no reference to any provision of any law in the excerpt, it means that “Antares” publishing house Director Armen Martirosyan isn’t obliged to provide any document or hear, “They are saying to give documents to them. I am saying to write so that we can give. He says- no, that he won’t write.” Then advocate Tigran Yegoryan came and switched on the recorder, “It angered them more as these people understand only street slang. They even threatened. They told Tigran Yegoryan that he would see what would happen with him. Then the employees of tax operative investigation attacked Tigran Yegoryan, hit him and grasped the recorder, deleted all the conversation, after which there was hustle. Armen Martirosyan was surprised at the free behavior of tax employees, who didn’t have any legal documents, “They were taking the documents from my table and looking through them. I said that I would call Police as their actions were illegal.” Then learning that the employees of the Office of Human Rights Defense arrived at the publishing house, tax officers ran away, says Armen Martirosyan. Then Police came. Today relevant statement will be made, “Those people haven’t read a book, they don’t have any cultural values, I regret to say that such people work at finance sphere of our country.” The department of information and public relations of Finance Ministry informed “A1+” that operative investigation was carried out by presenting the excerpt. The information about the clash between tax officers and the employees during the meeting isn’t accurate, the tax officers just wanted to know whether the recorder was recording or not, they took the recorder and put on the same place.
