Vladimir Doronin suffers setback in luxe hotel battle

Russian oligarch Vladimir Doronin, billionaire ex of Naomi Campbell, suffered a blow in his legal battle over luxury hotel chain Amanresorts after a London judge threatened to have him jailed or fined, or have his assets seized, if he disobeys a new order.

Doronin, who claims he’s the owner of the ultraluxe Aman hotel business, which includes the Amanyara in Turks and Caicos and Thailand’s Amanpuri Resort, has been in a court struggle with his former business partner, New York-based Omar Amanat.

A rep for Doronin said, “We are aware of the court’s judgment [only] on the specific issue of there being no proactive comments on the ownership of Aman and we await the final hearing later on this year. Mr. Doronin looks forward to when this matter is finally resolved in his favor.”

Time to return or reconsider , like ourselves besides catching up with Aman family / old friends , especially with so many Amans from which to explore new regions now
Well , pray all will be resolved soon & that Aman ethos will hold stead , along with long held values .

Reading that first post on Amanpuri beach is quite something , with Harish here & some pioneer team holding fort , things should get even better .
If this good wind prevails , like the gentle breeze blowing now & calm seas for this season , can hope to return more often to this Aman flagship home .
