Special services found a submachine gun and a sniper rifle in one of
the music halls that the presidents of Georgia and Armenia are
supposed to visit on Saturday evening.

The State Security Ministry said the submachine gun and the sniper
rifle were found in one of the storage rooms several hours before the
arrival of Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili and Armenian
President Robert Kocharyan.

It is not known yet who is the owner of the weapons or how they got
into the building. Special services searched both the performers and
spectators.
