Social

In the previous report of the US State Department about the victims of human trafficking in Armenia several officers of the RA Prosecutor’s office were accused of cooperation with those engaged in trafficking. A special group comprising of the workers of the Foreign Ministry, the NA and the National Security Administration was created in order to investigate the matter.

Investigator of the RA Prosecutor’s office Aristakes Yeremyan was accused of taking bribe from a woman engaged in human trafficking in the United Arab Emirates. According to the Attorney General, they not only failed to confirm the accusation but also revealed several other criminals with his help.

“If we pay attention to the report of the current year of the US State Department, they were milder about the trafficking issues. This year more cases have been revealed. Thanks to the amendments to the Criminal Code, trafficking is considered a criminal case now”, Mr. Hovsepyan said.
