The Prosecutor General’s Office of Armenia will present the first claims for civil forfeiture of illegal assets soon. This is what Prosecutor General Artur Davtyan said during today’s discussion on the 2020 Report of the Prosecutor General’s Office in parliament.

According to him, 214 decisions on launching inquests have been rendered in the period between September 3 and December 31, 2020.

“Several practical issues emerged after the institution of civil forfeiture of illegal assets was introduced, and there is a need for legislative amendments,” Davtyan said.
