Sedrak Kocharyan’s case moved to Anti-Corruption Court

The case against Sedrak Kocharyan, eldest son of former president Robert Kocharyan, has been transferred to Armenia’s Anti‑Corruption Court, with charges also brought against Aleksan Voskanyan.

The judicial‑legal platform Datalex reports that the case involving Sedrak Kocharyan, co‑founder of “LL Bimbo” LLC, has been assigned to the Anti‑Corruption Court. Investigators allege he was able to influence executive decisions at the company and, together with his affiliate Serzh Azat Sarkisyan, engaged in prohibited entrepreneurial activity and received substantial bribes.

To conceal the illicit origin of assets obtained via bribery, misrepresent their nature and source, and hide associated rights, Kocharyan reportedly orchestrated a series of bank transfers and asset transactions under the guise of legitimate income, using company funds for personal gain .

Charges have also been filed against Aleksan Voskanyan. As executive director of “LL Bimbo,” Voskanyan, acting on behalf of the company, allegedly facilitated prohibited business operations and substantial bribery, aiding Sarkisyan and Kocharyan. He too is accused of helping conceal illicit funds through bank transfers to Kocharyan’s personal account .

Both defendants have been barred from leaving the country. The case is being overseen by Judge Vahe Dolmazyan.
