We present general arguments, based on the medium-induced radiative energy loss, to explain the presence of nontrivial angular structures within this perturbative mechanism. Simple analytical estimates of this effect are provided which are relevant to the current discussion on the interpretation of the data on two- and three-particle correlations of semihard particles at BNL's Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider.
