You can submit a report regarding any corruption risk encountered in the territory of the Republic of Armenia, an incident of a corrupt nature, a conflict of interest by a public servant, or an apparent violation of a code of conduct, or incompatibility requirement, or other restriction, or declaration, or other apparent violations, or you have information on any of the above-mentioned cases.

Submitting a report is free.

The participation of a lawyer is not mandatory. Nevertheless, it is at your discretion. During the further examination of the application, you can appear through a representative (lawyer).

By the way, the known information can be reported anonymously as well.

We do not forget that whistle-blowers are not “snitchers”, they are decent and law abiding citizens.

Experts in the field also appreciate the importance of whistle-blowing. Mr. Hovsep Khurshudyan, the President of the “Free Citizen” Civic Initiatives Support Centre” NGO in his speech referred to the opinion that corruption led to the defeat in the war as well.

“Isn’t it clear that if they buy a rocket and that rocket doesn’t fly, it’s because the rocket was useless, but they bought it cheaper and showed it to the state at a high price, and embezzled the extra money. In the same Ministry of Defense, the approvals, testing, inspections of the purchase of that missile went through a whole chain. In fact, no one considered it their duty to announce that there is a risk, a corruption risk; there is a violation, that the missile will not fire, will not fly. They said, “Well, it’s our acquaintance, our superior is using it there, he supports a family, we’re not “snitchers”… As a result of those “not snitchers” we had 4-5 thousand victims and the loss of large territories, because we are not “snitchers” and when we see such things, it is not appropriate to voice it so that the prosecutor’s office does not deal with it, let them rob our state, sacrifice our youth, that is not the important thing, the important thing is that we are not “snitchers”, Khurshudyan noted.

Please note that you can report through the azdararir.am platform as well.
