    EX FM OSKANIAN AGAIN SUMMONED FOR INTERROGATION

    TERT.AM
    21:11 ~U 30.01.13

    Former Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian said Monday that he was
    recently summoned to National Security Service for a new interrogation
    over the criminal proceeding against his foundation Civilatas.

    The politician made the statement at a meeting devoted to the
    foundation's fifth anniversary.

    "The process is still going on, with people periodically being called
    for interrogation. As for Civilitas, they have now started delving
    deeper into different programs. I don't know how far it will go,"
    Oskanian said, repeating an earlier statement that he finds the
    proceeding politically motivated.

    Asked what programs he meant, the ex-Foreign minister referred to
    several projects, especially the one related to the water supply of
    border villages. "We had a water supply project in two border villages
    in 2009, and the NSC has now gone into the details of that. It
    looks as though Civilitas had taken a kickback from the project,"
    the ex-minister said, considering the measures excessive.

    Oskanian, who is now a lawmaker of the Prosperous Armenia party,
    faces charges over appropriation of funds and money laundering.
