Armenian fund wins Genocide museum lawsuit

January 29, 2011 | 12:56

Under U.S. court decision, all properties located in the center of
Washington, purchased and donated by Gerard Cafesjian, will be
returned to the Cafesjian Family Foundation (CFF).

The Voice of America reported decision by Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly
is a significant victory for Gerard Cafesjian in over 3-year long
legal battle for the project of construction of the Armenian Genocide
Museum. All accusations against Gerard Cafesjian and the Cafesjian
Family Foundation were dismissed. The ruling reinstated CFF on the
board of the Armenian Genocide Museum & Memorial. Legal fees of
Cafesjian will be compensated as well.

The verdict was passed after open court hearings were held last November.
