Protest held in Armenian capital against opposition activists' trial
Some 500 people gathered outside a Yerevan court on 30 January to
support seven opposition activists who are on trial on charges of
organizing mass riots in the Armenian capital in March 2008, the
Russian Kavkazskiy Uzel website has reported.
The opposition Armenian National Congress distributed fliers among the
protesters urging them to avoid confrontation with police that
cordoned off the court building, Kavkazskiy Uzel said.
In the meantime, the court postponed the trial for the sixth time on
30 January, this time until 12 February, since defendants did not
stand up when the judge entered the courtroom, the report said.
