Hürriyet, Turkey
Jan 21 2007

Whole country stands up

Marches and demonstrations were organised across Turkey following the
assassination of Hrant Dink, the Editor-in-Chief of the Armenian Agos
newspaper and a strong critic of what he saw as Turkey’s failure to
admit that the killing of Armenians during WWI amounted to genocide,
who was shot in the face outside his newspaper office on January 19.

Those who gathered for the marches included mayors, political parties
including the CHP, DSP, ODP, EMEP, SHP, and non-governmental
organisations like the Association in Support of Contemporary Living.
The most common slogan was, `We are all Armenians, we are all Dink’.

Police have arrested a suspect, Ogun Samast, in the Dink killing
after receiving a tip from the suspect’s father, who saw pictures of
his son on TV leaving the scene of the crime.
