Sanitek Wants Its Garbage Bins Back from Baghramyan - All 41

In a weird twist to the week old electricity rate hike protest in Yerevan, Sanitek Ltd, the company that collects garbage in the Armenian capital, has now entered the fray by filing a suit arguing that 41 of its garbage bins, now used as a barrier on Baghramyan Avenue, have been damaged.

In a statement released today, Armenia’s Investigative Committee (AIC) says that its Kentron and Nork-Marash branch received the police report after a representative of Sanitek (a Lebanese-based company which won the garbage removal tender for Yerevan) filed the complaint.

The AIC says that based on the evidence received, it has launched a criminal case based on Article 185 of the Criminal Code - Willful destruction or spoilage of property.

A decision has been taken to seize the 41 garbage bins now used as a barricade on Baghramyan Avenue and that the police have been instructed to do so.

Highly unlikely Sanitek Ltd, would care enough about a couple of bins to throw itself into this protest. This is just an excuse created by the government and forced down Sanitek. A way to disperse the crowds even more and highlight the event as unlawful.

Geez...how much do one of those trash bins cost? What, will Sanitaek go belly up? Capitalist greed at work.
