The Armenian Police has finished the preliminary investigation on the case of pension written out on a deceased person’s name.

To remind, a criminal case was launched on violations while appointing and paying pensions in 2009-2010. During the investigation violations were also discovered in the payment process of citizen S. Andreasyan mother’s pension.

It came out that Andreasyan did not present his mother’s death certificate to Armenia’s Social Security Service in 2007. Instead, he had told that his mother was sick. Thus, during 2007-2010 he received his mother’s pension which totaled to AMD 1,119,200 causing damage to the state.

A criminal case was launched against Andreasyan. The money stolen by Andreasyan was returned to the state during the preliminary investigation.
