  A. Pozanenko (IKI) report on behalf of larger GRB follow-up collaboration:

We observed the field of Swift GRB 160127A (Amaral-Rogers et al., GCN 
18938) with ORI-40 telescope of Khureltogot observatory starting on 
Jan., 27 (UT) 19:32:48.  We marginally detect optical afterglow 
(Amaral-Rogers et al., GCN 18938; Klotz et al., GCN 18939; Cucchiara et 
al., GCN 18941). Preliminary photometry of the afterglow is following

Photometry is based on nearby SDSS stars, R magnitude deduced from 
Lupton's transformations.
