For several years Armenian media have linked Poghosyan, a 39-year-old Major General of Justice who served as SMEJA head since 2008, to different lucrative businesses in Armenia.
In 1997, several years before taking his first public office, Poghosyan founded a limited liability company called Catherine Group, which is known to be engaged in lucrative imports and distribution of foodstuffs, including fresh fruit. Poghosyan, however, has denied having any connection to the business today.
Modest declarations of income by Poghosyan have often become a subject of poignant media publications, with some papers noting last year that his wife has purchased a $70,000-worth Range Rover Sport HSE SUV without having any declared incomes in 2014 and 2015.
