PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Istanbul prosecutor office urges up to 3 years of imprisonment for Arat Dink, the son of Hrant Dink. An action against Agos editor Arat Dink and his fellow Sargis Serobyan was brought for a repeated publication of Hrant Dink’s interview where he recognized the Armenian Genocide.
During yesterday’s court session Arat Dink said the prosecutors provoked Hrant Dink’s slaying by initiating proceeding against him. “The most absurd and dangerous is the fact that describing a historical event as ‘genocide’ is perceived as insulting Turkishness,” Arat Dink said, RFE/RL reports.
In case he is found guilty, Arat can be deprived of liberty for 6 months and up to 3 years
This law has to go!
