There was a rowdy crowd at the forgery trial of Nigera's Senate President Bukola Saraki and his deputy Ike Ekweremadu.
It forced a 15-minute delay to the start of the case, as attempts were made to calm the crowd.
Both pleaded not guilty to the charges read out to them (see earlier post).
The Nigerian Government is accusing them of complicity in forging of the Senate Standing Orders to help them secure their current positions.
They have been granted bail and the case has been adjourned to 11 July. The senate president has been battling another court case of false asset declaration, a charge which he denies.
