YEREVAN — Armenia’s Anti-Corruption Committee announced that it has obtained sufficient evidence indicating that Russia-based blogger Mika Badalyan allegedly offered services and other benefits to hundreds of Armenian citizens residing in Russia in exchange for participating in Armenia’s parliamentary elections.
A criminal investigation has been launched in connection with the allegations.
“Authorities are undertaking all measures provided by law to identify citizens living abroad who allegedly received electoral bribes and to apply the legal measures prescribed by law,” the Anti-Corruption Committee said in a statement.
