Relatives of those killed in April' s uprising in Kyrgyzstan clashed with police and defense counsels at a trial in Bishkek for deposed President Kurmanbek Bakiyev and 27 of his top allies, local media reported Wednesday.

The relatives kept shouting slogans, calling to burn all defendants' houses and charging them with life penalties. During the trial proceeding, they became angry about the present 18 defense counsels and some of them even broke through the police line, conflicting physically with the counsels, who then quitted and left.

The judge then announced the sentence would be made on Thursday.

Bakiyev was tried in his absence. He and his two sons and other two allies were still abroad. Other 22 were charged with malfeasance and murder of civilians, the report said.

The trial was conducted in the Sports Palace of Bishkek to accommodate enough interested crowds, the report said.

Riots broke out on April 7 in Bishkek and bloody conflicts occurred then between police and demonstrators which killed 57 and injured about 500 others. The event resulted in the deposition of Bakiyev and his escape to Belarus. He announced resignation afterwards.
