Charges of “abuse of official authority” have been filed against Baghramyan Mayor Ara Saharyan based on evidence presented by Hetq that the mayor had roads in the community dug up, sewage pipes removed, and later sold at prices he set.

The law states that such property must be appraised by a licensed organization.

Mayor Saharyan also sold a two-story building, a former military commissariat office, in the same manner.
