Social

The depositors of the bank “Armenia” which went bankrupt were gathered opposite the Central Bank again this morning. This was by approximate calculations their 250th meeting.

According to cheated depositor Qnarik Avetisyan, There are all in all 140 depositors who have lost a total sum of only 140 thousand USD. She is especially angry with the fact that the sum can be lost by a state official in a casino in a single hour. She is also angry with the latest announcement of the President of the Central Bank that his income has raised as the income of the bank has raised, and he has no money to give to the depositors.

What is interesting is that none of the depositors gathered opposite the Central Bank speaks about the interests of the main sum they left in the bank. Astghik Baghdasaryan said nothing about her deposits but informed that the bank “Armenia” had a property of about 4.5 million USD which was sold for very low prices to high state officers.

The depositors told the journalists present that in February 2003 the President of the Central Bank received them and advised them to make an announcement in the newspaper in order to find all the cheated depositors. The did so, and several months passed, but upon receiving them again the CB President said that he has no money for compensation. Before that, nevertheless, he assured that if the total sum becomes known, and the depositors agree to the phase-by-phase compensation, he will allot 30-35 thousand USD for the first phase of compensation.
