    YEREVAN Oct 27


    Armenian courts have taken up 89 criminal cases of 110 citizens
    engaged in the March 1 riots in Yerevan, Prosecutor General Agvan
    Ovsepian said on Monday.

    "As of now, 89 cases of 110 citizens have been investigated and
    referred to court," he said.

    The Armenian opposition led by ex-president Levon Ter-Petrossian
    refused to recognize results of the February 19 presidential election
    and organized large-scale protests. The protests resulted in clashes
    with the police on March 1. Ten people died and more than 250 people
    were injured during the clashes.
