The ruling Republican Party offers AMD 10000 to residents of Charentsavan town for their passport data, Yerkir daily reports.

RPA’s representatives even “confiscate” some passports promising a higher remuneration for them. Same is the case with those whom the party does not trust, taking away passports of people they believe may take the money and vote for some other force.

According to Yerkir, RPA increasingly resorts to such practice particularly in provinces where their rival Prosperous Armenia dominates.
