ArmInfo. As a result of operative actions taken by the State Revenues Committee of Armenia in Yerevan a regular attempt to sell a bulk quantity of pirated brandy was prevented.
As the press service of the Committee informs it was revealed that a citizen of Yerevan Sergey Danielyan was engaged in bottling and selling alcoholic beverages of unknown origin. In order to identify the abuse, employees of the operational department of the Committee "made" a preliminary order to Danielyan for the delivery of the products. Later, during the organization of supply, a large batch of falsified brandy was found bottled under the brand of a well-known brandy factory. As a result of operational and investigative measures aimed at revealing the source of the production of false brandy, a large batch of counterfeit spirits, as well as raw materials and products for their preparation, were found in the trading room at Tigran Mets, 16a. It was also found out that, apart from private entrepreneur Sergey Danielyan, private entrepreneurs Gohar and Sirun Muradyans were also involved in the same type of activity. They confessed and gave an explanation that they knew in advance about the fake nature of the product. Based on the results of the checks, the relevant protocols were drawn up on the basis of the second part of Article 57 of the Criminal Procedure Code. The investigation is underway.
