Extortion Case: Police Arrest Suspect During Money Transfer

On April 28, a founder of a limited liability company filed a report at the Erebuni police station, stating that a former employee had posted photos of him and his wife on a social media platform, alleging that they were involved in fraud. The former employee demanded money to remove the post.

Thanks to the joint operational and investigative measures carried out by officers of the Criminal Police, the Expert Division, the Yerevan City Police, and the Erebuni Police Department, a man from the Armavir region was arrested on the same day at 6:10 PM, during the transfer of 240,000 drams from the company founder. He was taken into custody by the Erebuni police. Preparations are underway for further investigation.
