On August 10, an attempt of illegal circulation of false banking cards was prevented, as a result of investigation and search operations carried out by National Security Service (NSS) of Armenia.

As the NSS press office told PanARMENIAN.Net, 21 false U.S. bank cards were found, after repetitive check-out of Yerevan-Moscow passenger Armen Tumanyan’s luggage in Zvartnots Yerevan international airport. It was planned to appropriate money and property by means of these cards in banks and trade spots through illegal deals.

Investigation is under way.
