''They called themselves 'princes of darkness' and 'angels of freedom' and demanded that Russia stop the war in Chechnya,'' a spokesman for the agency said by telephone. Tass said the site raiders had sent an e-mail protesting over the ''murder of peaceful Chechens.'' It added that the identity of the hackers was unknown and that it was working to repair the damage. ---------------------------------- Send mail for the 'huridocs-tech' list to 'huridocs-tech@hrea.org'.
