    ARMENIA'S WEIGHTLIFTING FEDERATION TO APPEAL TURKS' GOLD

    YEREVAN, APRIL 20, ARMENPRESS: Armenia's Weightlifting Federation is
    planning to officially apply to the World Weightlifting Federation to
    appeal the omitting of the obvious violation at the European Cup in
    Kazan by Turkish athlete Selim Yacgi who while lifting the bar could
    not stand straight, an official from the Armenian Federation reported.

    As a result of mistake of the referees, Armenian weightlifter Arayik
    Mirzoyan, who lifted the same weight without violations, received
    silver. The European Weightlifting Federation refused to satisfy the
    appeal of the Armenian side, but the World Federation is to study
    the fact.
