On February 28, the publication of “Hayk” daily resumed. As it has been reported,
the issue of the daily was suspended from February 20 due to the arrest of the
newspaper’s property and assets. The arrest was applied on February 19, as a
measure to secure the suit filed the day before by “Gind” publishing house with
the Yerevan Civil Court versus the newspaper founder, “Hayk Editorial Office”
LLC. The plaintiff demanded to pay the debts for the publishing expenses. On
February 23, as a result of negotiations between the daily and the publishing
house, “Gind” revoked its suit upon the condition of “Hayk” repaying the dept
till April 1, 2009 (see YPC Weekly Newsletter, February
20-26, 2009).
After the process of release of the property and the assets, the “Hayk” resumed
publication at “A. Markosian” printing house, where it had moved since February
9.
