Armenia’s Special Investigation Service confirmed the reports for Armenian News-NEWS.am adding that the process of extradition is in progress.
Mihran Poghosyan is involved in the headline-making case of money laundering through an offshore company.
Earlier this week the judge rendered a decision to remand Poghosyan. He has been included as an accused-on-trial for committing publicly dangerous acts (using official position, confiscating property in particularly large amounts through squander and misusing official powers, which led to heavy consequences).
