    JHANGIRIAN'S CLAIM DENIED
    [02:32 pm] 08 May, 2008

    Minutes ago the RA Criminal Court of Appeal denied
    Former Deputy Prosecutor General Gagik Jhangirian's
    claim, keeping on the April 18 resolution of Kentron
    and Nork-Marash General Jurisdiction Court.

    The General Jurisdiction Court had prolonged Gagik
    Jhangirian's preliminary term of detention till June
    24.

    The verdict was announced by the Criminal Court of
    Appeal in a closed session, with dozens of citizens
    waiting in front of the court building.

    The picket participants raised Gagik Jhangirian's
    photos above their heads shouting: `Liberty to Gagik',
    `Gagik, we are on your side'. They did not yield to
    the policemen's orders to keep back from the court
    building. `We can stand wherever we like', opposed the
    women.

    `They detained Gagik Jhangirian when he began speaking
    of October 27 events. It was not evidently in the
    interests of the authorities', assured Ms. Aida, who
    claimed that she knew Jhangirian quite well.

    `He has always been with his people', proclaimed the
    participants and noticing that they are being
    photographed, added: `Over 1 million advocates are on
    Levon Ter-Petrossian's side. You can't arrest all of
    them anyway'
