/PanARMENIAN.Net/ On Tuesday, after about three weeks after the
assassination of Agos Armenian-Turkish newspaper editor Hrant Dink,
the Sisli circuit court of Istanbul resumed legal proceeding against
Dink, who was earlier accused of "insulting Turkishness" and handed
a 6 months’ suspended sentence. The Turkish Court of Appeal agreed
with the sentence but changed it stating that 15 people who brought
in the suit can’t be considered plaintiffs, since the "insult" was
not targeted at them. Yesterday the Sisli court fulfilled the order
of the Supreme Court and decreed that the individuals who took the
action are not plaintiffs. However, a judge said that Dink’s death
was not officially registered in the court records and postponed the
hearing to June 14, reports RFE/RL.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
