    "NO EVIDENCE OF TERRORISM" IN SOCHI AIR CRASH - RUSSIAN TRANSPORT POLICE

    NTV Mir, Moscow
    3 May 06

    Igor Zhukov, the head of the North Caucasus Ministry of Internal
    Affairs transport department, has told a news conference that terrorism
    can be ruled out as a cause of the crash of an Armavia Airbus A320 in
    the sea off the Russian southern resort of Sochi, Russian NTV Mir's
    "Segodnya" news reported on 3 May.

    "There is no evidence of terrorism. It may be pilot error or some
    technical failure or a ground services failure or something wrong
    with the aircraft, but in no way can we say this is a case of
    terrorism. That is the most important thing," the TV news showed
    him saying.

    The same bulletin showed Armavia spokeswoman Zhazmin Vilyan talking to
    the media at Armenia's Zvartnots airport: "According to our initial
    reckoning, there were 26 Russian citizens among the passengers, one
    from Georgia and one from Ukraine. That's our initial summary. We
    are clarifying the list now," she said.
