Five thousand gather in sit-down protest of Hrant Dink assassination
Five thousand people gathered yesterday evening in Taksim Square in a
sit-down protest against the assassination of Hrant Dink, the
Editor-in-chief of the Armenian Community’s newspaper, Agos, which
took place earlier in the day. The protestors proceeded to march
towards the newspaper’s office carrying photographs of Mr. Dink,
candles, torches, and flowers.
The crowd, which had doubled in number by the time they had reached
the Agos building, sang and clapped hands in protest as well as
shouting such slogans as, `We are all Hrant Dink. We are all
Armenians’, and `Hrant Dink’s murderer is this country’s betrayer’.
