Hraparak daily of Armenia writes as follows, in particular: [PM Nikol] Pashinyan and his subordinates are consistently continuing the process of depriving [opposition Prosperous Armenia Party leader and businessman] Gagik Tsarukyan of his possessions.

For several days now, the drivers of the Multi Transport [public transport] company belonging to Tsarukyan have been the target of patrols. [Public] transport operating on the route from Kotayk Province to Yerevan is stopped, checked, and fined.

One of the drivers said in a conversation with us that they are fined 5,000 drams at every step. (...). Regarding the fines, we contacted the Multi Transport company, but the dispatcher, upon hearing the name of the media outlet, said “I can't be of any help with anything,” and hung up.

Let us note that Artur Dallakyan, the director of the Multi Transport company which is part of the Multi Group Concern [belonging to Gagik Tsarukyan], was detained for two months after the persecution that began against Tsarukyan. First, the authorities seized Tsarukyan's hotels, factories, sports complex, confiscated [his] animals, and now it is the Multi Transport company’ turn.

The fact alone that the [aforesaid] patrols do not check and fine drivers of other provinces, also of Yerevan with the same consistency already speaks of a political directive.
