/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The murderer of Agos weekly editor-in-chief Hrant
Dink may not have been alone before and after committing the crime,
the Milliyet daily reported.
After Ogun Samast’s pictures were published, an unnamed person
called the Pelitli Gendarmerie in the Black Sea province of Trabzon
and reported that he knew Samast, where he lived and worked and his
father’s name, said the daily.
But although the phone call was made Jan. 20, a day after the murder,
it was filed nine days later by the gendarmerie. The caller said,
he ran away from Trabzon to Istanbul with his friends, committed the
murder there.
Although Samast said he was alone in planning and committing the
crime, that person’s call says he headed for Istanbul with his
friends. Suspect and informant, Erhan Tuncel, in his testimony had also
implied Samast was not alone. Coskun Igci, uncle of the suspect Yasin
Hayal charged with inciting the murder, reported to two gendarmerie
stations that Hayal would murder Hrant Dink.
The trial of the police officials who did not take any action after
the report will start Jan. 22.
