An Armenian businessman in Dubai won $1 million (around Dh3.67 million) in the latest Dubai Duty Free (DDF) Millennium Millionaire draw on Tuesday, Gulf News reported.

Abraham Melkonian, 50, is a father of three and runs a heavy equipment business in Dubai and Sharjah.

Melkonian is the first Armenian to win the DDF millionaire draw, in the latest edition held at Concourse A of Dubai International Airport.

He had bought his winning ticket (No. 4351), which was picked up in Millennium Millionaire Series 375, online on November 18.

A regular participant in DDF’s promotion since its inception, Melkonian is a resident of Dubai for 32 years. Melkonian previously won a BMW 750 LI XDrive car, with ticket number 1261 in DDF’s Finest Surprise Series 1720 back in June 201. He was delighted to receive another call from DDF informing him that he had won $1 million this time.
