Armenia’s Anti-Corruption Court has accepted for consideration another lawsuit filed by the Prosecutor General’s Office seeking the confiscation of property deemed to have illicit origin.

The Department for Confiscation of Property of Illicit Origin has demanded that six real estate properties, two movable assets, shares in six legal entities, and nearly 2 million drams in illicit funds be seized from National Assembly member Arthur Sargsyan and persons affiliated with him, for the benefit of the Republic of Armenia.

The court has also applied provisional measures to secure the claim.

Arthur Sargsyan, a member of the Hayastan parliamentary faction, has been detained for two months. He faces charges of preparing acts of terrorism and attempting to seize state power, in a case involving Archbishop Bagrat and several others.
