I had two trades as a BTC buyer / maker. Both went to arbitration because the seller could not confirm because of a technical problem, one of the arbitrators mentioned a bug.  
One of the trades went fine and the BTC was released to me.

For the other trade it seems the BTC was released back to the seller, even though I have payed and confirmed payment. I cannot communicate with the arbitrator since he closed the ticket.  
As it stands now I have made the fiat payment, but the BTC has been sent back to the seller.

The selected arbitrator who I have communicated with is s6yrrpezc3zp6biy.onion:9999.

**How do I proceed with this?**

Yes same mistake here.  
Maybe I am the other party.  
Arbitrator: ss6yrrpezc3zp6biy.onion:9999  
Trade ID: 1992464  
I now own the money and the BC.  
How can I transfer the BC to their rightful owner?

Please help I don’t want to damage my reputation.

That is indeed the trade I’m referring to. I’ve been in contact with @keo, and he has sent you a message on Bisq.
