The workaround is this

tell application "Finder"
close every window
open home
set the_selection to (select items 1 thru 3 of front window)
open folder "Documents" of home
set the_selection to (select items 1 thru 3 of front window)
end tell

That's why I used system events in my script - to simulate a manual selection.
