BUSINESS AND PROPERTY COURTS OF ENGLAND AND WALES

QUEEN'S BENCH DIVISION

COMMERCIAL COURT

 

BETWEEN:  ROMAN PIPIA (Claimant) and BGEO GROUP LIMITED (FORMERLY BGEO GROUP PLC) (Defendant)

 

 

 

 

 

Following a public hearing held on 12 January 2021, regarding an application by Mr. Roman Pipia ("Mr Pipia") for additional disclosure from BGEO Group Limited (formerly BGEO GROUP PLC) ("BGEO"), in the legal proceedings brought by Mr. Pipia against BGEO in the Commercial Court of the English High Court, the Court has issued its judgment, obliging the Defendant to give additional disclosure. BGEO had resisted disclosure of the mobile phone used by its former CEO, Iralki Gilauri, but the Court said that the device had to be delivered up to be searched.

It is Mr. Pipia's case that the actions of BGEO in relationsto Rustavi Azot LLC have caused him significant damages. The amount claimed by Mr. Pipia, in his amended claim, is minimum USD393 million.
