Judge Arayik Melkoumyan failed to deliver a verdict yesterday in the case pitting the German company “Ostinvestor” against Gagik Tsarukyan’s Yerevan Ararat Brandy/Wine/Vodka Factory (YABWV).

This follows a December 7 failure by Judge Melkoumyan to issue a verdict in a longstanding legal battle in which the Geman company claims that Tsarukyan swindled it out of shares in YABWV.

On December 7, the judge ordered that the case be re-examined.
