    PROTEST RALLY IN FRONT OF RUSSIAN EMBASSY IN ARMENIA (PHOTOS, VIDEOS)

    A protest rally has been conducted today in front of Russian embassy
    in Armenia in defense of two Armenian citizens claimed to be arrested
    groundlessly and isolated for already seven months without any proofs.

    The demonstrators were the relatives of the arrestees - Hamlet
    Alexanyan and Edgar Martirosyan - from Lori and Aragatsotn provinces.

    They were asking the ambassador to interfere into the process for
    conduction of fair trial.

    Speaking to reporters Edgar Martirosyan's mother said she is surprised
    how it is possible to charge a person with robbery and rape without
    any proves. Only during the face-to-face meeting the victims said the
    detained people look like their attackers. "If my son is innocent why
    he is arrested and if he is guilty why he is not officially tried,"
    Silvard Manukyan said.

    Initially four people were charged but as far as two of them were
    Russian citizens they were set free and the other two charged with
    attack and rape.

    "They were caught with the testimonies of two Russian prostitutes
    who were drunk. Initially they were charged with robbery and rape
    but after the lawyer demanded medical expertise the rape charge was
    withdrawn with robbery left," the aunt of one of the guys said.

    One of the girls reported about 6 guys, and the other claimed they
    were four. There are no facts.

    Embassy officials received few demonstrators who expressed their
    complaints.
