MORE ARRESTS REPORTED IN WAKE OF ARMENIAN OPPOSITION DEMONSTRATION
Armenian opposition spokesmen told RFE/RL's Yerevan bureau on 8 April that at least nine people were arrested following an opposition rally in Yerevan the previous day (see "RFE/RL Newsline," 8 April 2003). Artak Zeynalian, a leading member of the opposition Hanrapetutiun Party that supports defeated presidential candidate Stepan Demirchian, estimated that "dozens" of people were detained and said their whereabouts remain unclear. Police and Justice Ministry officials have refused either to confirm or deny the reports of the most recent arrests. LF
