KIEV, Aug. 16 ??“ A Kiev district court ruled on Wednesday that Ukrainian mogul Ihor Kolomoyskiy should be recognized as the owner of 70% stake in Studio 1+1, the country??™s second most popular television.
The ruling upholds Kolomoyskiy??™s claim that he had a verbal agreement with a key shareholder to acquire the stake. But the ruling will probably be appealed by Central European Media Enterprises Ltd, a U.S. media group, which says it owns 60% in the television.
