    `Do questions harm legal proceeding?'

    The first instance court of Kentron-Nork Marash districts today ended
    hearings into the case filed by the legal successors of March 1
    victims Tigran Khachatryan, Gor Kloyan and Armen Farmanyan. The
    relatives were challenging the inactivity of the Special Investigation
    Service and Prosecutor General's Office.

    All the 30 questions raised by legal representative of March 1 victims
    Artak Zeynalyan were left unanswered today.

    As usual, respondent Vahagn Harutyunyan said the preliminary
    investigation was continuing and they could give no more details not
    to harm the investigation.

    "I just want to know whether my son's right to life was violated or
    not. Does the question harm the secrecy of the trail? How long do they
    intend to fool us?" said Alla Hovhannisyan, the mother of March 1
    victim Tigran Khachatryan.

    Her question was viewed by the judge as "deliberate and ill-motivated."

    "I am simply seeking a fair trial," said the indignant mother.

    The atmosphere in the courthouse tensed after the incident.

    "The policemen opening fire at our sons are already known. It is also
    known by which weapon they were shot dead. Why don't you simply
    inquire who gave the order of shooting. It is a simple task, isn't
    it," said Sargis Kloyan, the father of Gor Kloyan.

    In reply, Judge Karakhanyan said the preliminary investigation was
    still underway and it would give answers to many questions.

    The Court is scheduled to return a verdict on May 24.
