In order to realize his criminal intention and conceal the actions the LLC director prepared and presented a business plan on purchasing and operating machines for printing on paper cups and other items to the friend, his wife and the latter’s sister creating an illusion that due to his connections there would be no problem in sales and the received profit would be enough to pay the loan ahead of schedule as well as to receive large income.

In order to control the financial resources expected from the alienation of the property right which belonged to another person and later to possess them, extorting their agreement with false promises and taking factual control over the alienation of the possession right of the above-mentioned property, under the loan agreement of December 21, 2012 by pledging the mentioned property the LLC director received loan for 257․000․000 AMD depriving the sisters of the right to possession of the property in particularly large amount - 160.000.000 AMD.
