  ARFD rep doubtful Vartan Oskanian involved in “money laundering” – paper June 13, 2012 - 12:56 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - According to Yerkir daily, ARFD bureau member, MP Vahan Hovhannisyan doesn’t rule out that a criminal case against ex-Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian on money laundering charges may be linked to the latter’s intensified political activities. However, Hovhannisyan, who’s familiar with Oskanian and his family said he doubts the ex-FM is capable of the crime he’s charged with. “ARFD is strongly opposed to politically motivated criminal changes. However, I can’t debate the issue from legal viewpoint, being unfamiliar with the details of the charge,” the politician said.
