Baku/28.09.23/Turan: A billionaire, former "state minister" of the separatist regime in Karabakh has been criminally charged with financing terrorism, establishing illegal armed formations and illegally crossing the border of Azerbaijan, the country's SSS said today.
He was prosecuted within the framework of a criminal case investigated by the SSS of Azerbaijan on numerous terrorist offences committed by illegal Armenian armed formations in Karabakh.

According to the charges against him, Vardanyan, being a foreign citizen, illegally crossed the state border of Azerbaijan in September 2022 and arrived in Karabakh, where he took part in the establishment and activity of armed formations not provided by the legislation of Azerbaijan.
He was also involved in supplying weapons and military equipment to illegal military formations, which carried out attacks on institutions, organisations and individuals, resulting in deaths and other serious consequences.
Besides, Vardanyan took part in the financing of terrorism by allocating money to organise the terrorist activities of the said illegal armed groups, the press release further said.
