S., working in the “Spitak Medical Center” Closed Joint Stock company as a pediatrician in charge of the Spitak region, a doctor in charge of the immunization cabinet, performing organizational-managerial and administrative-economic functions and thus being an official person, committed official forgery.

Gh., the nurse of the same medical center kept a draft register of vaccinations, and N. S. instructed another healthcare worker who had nothing to do with the vaccination process to copy the data from the said register. Understanding that these data from the draft register book will be transcribed in the same way in the vaccination register of the Medical Center, which is an official document, N. S. with prior agreement with H. Gh. and selfish motivation, that is, with the expectation of receiving additional payment for each vaccination, made obviously false records on vaccination of 3 citizens of RA, while the same citizens were absent from the Republic of Armenia and not having been vaccinated with the second dose. Then, having put the official document containing false information into circulation N. S. with H. Gh. handed it over to the relevant department of the same medical center, where based on the information in the register, false certificates certifying being vaccinated against the coronavirus disease were drawn up and approved, and they were entered into the unified electronic health information system “ARMED”. Thus, N. S. committed a mediated official forgery.
For committing the above-mentioned crimes, N. S. (2 counts) and H.Gh. (3 counts) were charged under part 1 of article 445 of the RA Criminal Code.
