UFA (Sputnik) — The case has been adjourned. An arbitration court in the Russian republic of Bashkortostan is looking into Sistema’s suspected liability for its 2014 handling of assets of a local oil company, Bashneft, which is now controlled by Rosneft.
"Before we move forward, we want to recuse the judge because the judge is unlawfully ruling on interim measures and formally deciding on participants’ access in the case. We doubt the judge’s impartiality," an attorney for Sistema said in court.
