%X this paper is devoted to the investigation of the energy-momentum problem in two theories, i.e., general relativity and teleparallel gravity. we use einstein, landau-lifshitz, bergmann-thomson and m£żller's prescriptions to evaluate energy-momentum distribution of bell-szekeres metric in both the theories. it is shown that these prescriptions give the same energy-momentum density components in both general relativity and teleparallel theory. m£żller's prescription yields constant energy in both the theories.
