YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 12, NOYAN TAPAN. Hundreds of activists and supporters of Armenia's radical opposition, in particular, of the Armenian National Congress, on February 12, held a regular action of protest in the yard of Shengavit community general jurisdiction court. A regular court sitting on the "case of the seven" was envisaged at the court. Like the previous sittings' days, this time also there were a great number of policemen and representatives of Police special detachments in red berets in the streets near the court, who did not permit those gathered to come up to the court building. As one of the action participants stated in his interview to Noyan Tapan correspondent, the demonstrants' demand remains the same, urgent release of the political prisoners.
