- Details of Disappearance:
- On January 23, 2003, Aram Pogosian was last seen at a shopping mall in Glendale, California. After a meeting, he got into an argument on the phone and said he was going to Los Angeles to deal with it. He disappeared.
His family talked to him briefly on the phone the next day, January 24th, just hours before a large amount of money (a ransom) was given to a man in Los Angeles. Police don’t know who the man was.
A month later, his white Range Rover was found in Burbank, California. Pogosian was never found.
In 2004, police wanted to talk to Grigor “Vrej” Adamyan, a businessman, because they thought he might know something about what happened to Pogosian. They didn’t say he was guilty, just that they wanted to question him.
Police believe something bad happened to Pogosian. He worked as a medical clinic manager at the time. His disappearance remains a mystery.
