tert.am
17:50 ~U 25.01.13
The investigation of the murder of an old woman in Turkey's Istanbul's
district of Samatya and the attack on other four continues.
Istanbul-based Armenian-Turkish paper Agos reports that according to
its police sources, all these crimes were committed by one and the
same person. The police are currently trying to find out his identity
on the basis of the testimonies of eye-witnesses and CCTV.
The criminal is 30-35 years old. The police sources suppose that
the attack on a woman in Sisli district and the attacks in Samatia
are interconnected.
Maritza Kucuk was murdered on December 28, 2012 in her house where
she was living alone.
The attacks on old Armenian women continue keeping the residents of
Samatia district in fear for already 50 days.

Re: Western Armenians
Another Armenian killed in Istanbul, ethnic grounds suspected
A second ethnic Armenian has been murdered in Istanbul within a space of just two weeks in what may be a pattern that also left another ethnic Armenian severely injured.
According to reports by Turkish media, Ilker Sahin, a 40-year-old teacher at a local Armenian school, was murdered in Istanbul�s Kadikoy district.
Haberturk quoted Sahin�s colleagues as saying that they did not hear from him for some time and so decided to visit him. After finding the door to his apartment closed they alerted the police that later entered the house and found the body of the Armenian man with a slashed throat. A reported theory is that Sahin fought for some time with his murderer or murderers. The police reportedly ruled out the possibility of murder during a robbery attempt.
Sahin worked in Aramian school for nine years. It is not excluded that his murder is based on ethnic motives. An old Armenian women was murdered in Istanbul in late December and her throat was also cut. Another attack against an ethnic Armenian woman was committed earlier last year. The woman survived, but lost one eye in the attempted murder.
There is no indication that the police in Istanbul are now linking these three murders at the moment.

Re: Western Armenians
Les résidants d’un village turc exigent la reconstruction d’une église arménienne
Dans le cadre de la préparation du championnat d'Arménie de Premier groupe, de nombreuses équipes réalisent des rencontres amicales pour la sais...
L’église construite par les arméniens à Hakkari en Turquie a besoin de réparations selon le site turc Sondakika.
L’église arménienne située près de la frontière avec l’Iran reste debout malgré les dégâts. Les résidants du village exigent la restauration de l’église afin d’attirer les touristes.
« Pendant des années nous avons conservé l’église dans le centre de notre village mais cela n’est pas suffisant. Nous exigeons la reconstruction de l’église » a dit un des villageois Mehmet Emen.
Il a dit que toutes les parties de l’église sont debouts, le toit aussi mais que les touristes ne visitent pas le site.
« Nous sommes convaincus que l’église reconstruite lèvera l’intérêt des touristes et que beaucoup d’entre eux viendront pour voir cette église historique » a dit Mehmet Emen.ARMENIE OCCUPEE PAR LA TURQUIE
Une église arménienne dans la région d'Erzeroum en ruine
Le site turc Sondakika s'alarme sur l'état de destruction avancée de
l'église arménienne du village de Kéz dans la région d'Erzeroum
(Arménie occidentale occupée par la Turquie). L'église arménienne
abandonnée par les Arméniens depuis le génocide a fait l'objet de
visites, de vandalisme par des chasseurs de trésors qui ont détruit
une partie des constructions. Les tableaux et objets de culte ont
disparu. Puis le btiment religieux fut transformé en dépôt d'ordures
puis en écurie, démontrant l'irrespect de la Turquie d'Atatürk pour la
culture et le patrimoine culturel et religieux des Arméniens. Mais
depuis quelques années, les habitants de ce village de Kéz ont
interpellé les autorités et notamment le ministère de la Culture et du
Tourisme sur l'état de dégradation avancée de cette église arménienne.
Pour l'heure Ankara n'a pas réagi et l'église arménienne continue sa

Re: Western Armenians
Last Armenian Village in Turkey to Lose Status
A recent draft law on restructuring municipality borders will affect the special status of Turkey’s only Armenian-populated village. Located in the southern province of Hatay, Vakifli, which consists of 135 residents, will lose its “special” status with the new law.
Speaking to the Hürriyet Daily News, Vakifli community head Cem Capar said the survival of the village was very important both for them and Turkey’s image. “We hope our rights will be preserved in accordance with the law,” Capar said. “The new law proposes villages in the new metropolitan municipalities be turned into districts. This means Vakifli will lose its village status, so we will no longer be the only Armenian village of Turkey. We conveyed this subject to Hatay Governor Celalettin Lekesiz, with Justice Minister Sadullah Ergin also present,” Capar said. Following a transitional political period that formally existed from 1938 to 1939, Hatay was annexed to Turkey in a 1939 referendum. “Hatay joined Turkey in 1939. During that time, a law preventing foreigners from entering Vakifli came into force. We would be very pleased if Vakifli was protected with a similar law today. Otherwise, the village will not survive very long. It would disappear just like many Armenian villages and neighborhoods that faded away in Anatolia. It would also affect us economically as our gardens and vineyards will be taken away,” Capar said. The Hatay Governor’s speaker, Raif Harputoglu, told the Hurriyet Daily News there were no restrictions on non-Armenian people who want to reside in the village. “No restriction is made in regard to residence, anyone could settle there as they wish. But so far such an initiative has not been made. Vakifli is an important village, since it is a village of tolerance, despite all the crises between Turkey and Armenia.”
