Bank VTB (Armenia) files involuntary bankruptcy against parliament member

YEREVAN, October 24. /ARKA/. Bank VTB (Armenia) filed an involuntary bankruptcy against an Armenian parliament member, the bank’s press service reported Wednesday.

In following the internal procedures of the Bank VTB (Armenia), since November 2010 negotiations have been held with a deputy of Armenian Parliament, a member of Human Rights Protection and Public Issues Commission from the “Prosperous Armenia” party, borrower Tigran Vachiki Stepanyan in connection with non-fulfillment of debt obligations to the bank, the press release says.

Since November 2011 Tigran Stepanyan has been repeatedly notified by the bank that trial proceedings may be initiated by the bank in case if he does not fulfil his debt obligations.

After the judicial pleadings of September the 10th, 2012, Bank VTB (Armenia) made a petition to recognize involuntary bankruptcy of parliament member Tirgan Stepanyan.
