Four people detained in election corruption case

A supporter of the Strong Armenia Party promised a number of voters remuneration in exchange for votes in the elections to the National Assembly of Armenia scheduled for June 7, 2026. This is evidenced by published audio recordings.

As a result of joint evidentiary and operational investigation carried out by officers of the Anti-Corruption Committee of Armenia and the National Security Service of Armenia, data were obtained indicating that the party supporter offered employment and other forms of reward in exchange for support. These offers were accepted by voters.

A criminal case has been initiated under the relevant articles of the Criminal Code of Armenia. Public criminal prosecution has been launched against four individuals, and they have been detained.
