case with signs of state power usurpation which was opened by
the investigation department of the RA National Security Service
(NSS), Karen Ter-Stepanian, 37, a realtor, was detained on February
25. According to the RA NSS press service, he testified that "they
were to organize a procession to the Nork television tower. The fact

enter the premises of the building without difficulty and demand a
live broadcast for Levon Ter-Petrosian".
According to the same source, in connection with the same criminal
case the RA NSS together with the RA police early in the morning
of February 26 took joint operative-investigative measures with
respect to persons, who were participating in the actions organized

and ammunition, poisonous substances and explosives were found and
