What is happening in the 'Zovk' supermarket chain: new details
In the network of 'Nor Zovk' LLC stores, law enforcement is conducting searches and seizures, which is illegal. This was stated today, on February 20, in an interview with Auroranews by Aramazd Kiviryants, a representative and lawyer for 'Nor Zovk' LLC.
Aramazd Kiviryants reported that the searches began this morning and are still ongoing. 'We believe that the conducted searches and seizures are illegal. Furthermore, they are also unlawfully seizing certain equipment belonging to employees' company and personal phones, which they have no right to do. Moreover, they have seized equipment that does not serve as information carriers, meaning that seizing them merely disrupts the company's operations. I can say that these searches and seizures have effectively halted the company's operations.'
Aramazd Kiviryants noted that the investigators illegally demanded to turn off the surveillance cameras installed in the stores during the search. 'All these actions are being carried out intentionally, aimed at obstructing the company's operations. Which is unclear, if they are conducting legal searches, then what is the issue with the surveillance equipment functioning?'
The basis of the search is a decision made by the court, which was based on the corresponding petition of the Investigative Committee. Details are not yet known at this time.
It should be noted that since the morning, branches of the 'Zovk' supermarket chain have been closed. The RA Investigative Committee informed Auroranews that investigative actions are currently being carried out in the 'Zovk' supermarket chain.
