The Shirak Regional Investigation Department of the RA Investigative Committee has identified the individual suspected of committing a particularly large-scale theft from the 'Hayincasiatsia' LLC, following the necessary measures undertaken concerning the criminal case currently under investigation. This was reported by the press service of the Investigative Committee.

As previously reported, on March 18, 2019, workers from the 'Hayincasiatsia' LLC branch in Gyumri failed to submit a sum of 20,000 US dollars to the bank from the Nor Nork bank branch due to the end of their working day, and in accordance with established procedures, the money was kept in the storage of the 'Hayincasiatsia' LLC Gyumri branch. The next day, when the sealed bag containing the specified sum was handed over to the bank's 'Shirak' branch, it was discovered that the 20,000 US dollars, equivalent to 9,700,000 AMD, had been stolen, and instead, labels of bundles of money from another bank were placed in the bag.

As a result of the investigative actions and operational measures conducted under the criminal case initiated by the Shirak Regional Investigation Department, the identity of the individual suspected of committing the crime was determined. The individual is an employee of the 'Hayincasiatsia' LLC's Gyumri branch, specifically the driver, who is a resident of Gyumri. Evidence has been obtained indicating that he departed from Armenia on March 20, 2019, at 06:00 from 'Zvartnots' International Airport.
