SIX MONTHS OF IMPRISONMENT FOR DENYING THE GENOCIDE

Today the court of the Swiss city of Lausanne will issue a verdict
against the leader of labourist party of Turkey, Doghlu Perinchek.

To remind, Perinchek is accused of racism for qualifying the Armenian
Genocide as an `international lie’. As the `Associated Press’ reports,
this week the leader of the labourist party of Turkey repeated his
statements.

In case of being recognized guilty Perinchek will be the first to be
accused by the anti-racist law of Switzerland for denying the Armenian
genocide. The public prosecutor has claimed to sentence Perichek to 6
months of imprisonment.
