A group of young men being held on charges of setting a bale of hay
afire were first found guilty and then released under the provisions
of a general amnesty.
The controversial case had been closely covered by the press in
Armenia.
Aram Moughalyan and Robert Piloyan were sentenced to two years and six
months, and Gagik Arakelyan and Artour Klyan to one year and one month.
After leaving the courthouse, the men, who had always affirmed their
innocence, said they would appeal the verdict.
