A number of searches AND "examinations" have started.

Ararat Asryan, member to "Civic Recalcitrance" council had to give
explanation in KGB.

At 5:00 Arkadi Karapetyan, another activist of "Civic Recalcitrance"
was called into KGB. When asked how he would comment on the incidence,
he did his best to sound polite. He assured the reporters that there
was nothing to worry about. Arkadi Karapetyan was examined on the
phone; the content of the talk was unknown.

On May 5, while Vahan Shirkhanyan and Alexander Arzumanyan houses
were being rummaged, Artyom Khachatryan’s house was being rummaged
too. To remind the latter was the author of ‘ Dzon Pazolini’.

The security bodies were eager to find out his relationships with
Shirkhanayan. Generally, all these people are closely connected with an
RF citizen Levon Marcos who is under investigation at present. Artyom
Khachatryan touched upon the events concerning Levon Marcos. ’60-70
million dollars were appropriated; the bank is sold and next day it
is for sale. He has suffered a lot of losses.’
