YEREVAN, JANUARY 30, NOYAN TAPAN. On January 30, radical
opposition supporters organized a regular action of protest near
Yerevan Shengavit community's general jurisdiction court, where
the court sitting on the "case of the seven" was being held. The
demonstrants spread out the following placards: "Freedom to the
Wonderful Seven," "Freedom Now," and defendants' photographs.
During the whole action they voiced "Free, Independent
Armenia!," "Struggle, Struggle Till the End!."
Listening to Armenian National Congress' January 29 appeal
of not entering the court hall, the demonstrants stayed in the
yard until the court sitting finished. Dozens of policemen and
special police forces in red berets followed the action. After
the sitting they blocked the pavement not allowing people to
move to the city center. After the sitting the action
participants saw off the defendants with applause and made an
arrangement to continue the action at 14:00 near RA Prosecutor
General's Office building.
