    Representative of the Turkish "Peace Initiative" organization engaged
    in human rights protection Sanar Yurdatapan suggested his support for
    the editor-in-chief of the Istanbul based "Agos" newspaper Hrant Dink,
    who was recently sentenced to six months of conditional imprisonment
    for offending Turkish national identity.

    According to the Turkish "New Anatolian" periodical, speaking at the
    20th session of the Human Rights Union, Yurdatapan declared that his
    organization considers that Article 301 of the Criminal Code should
    be eliminated. Chairman of the Human Rights Association Yusuf Alatas
    also suggested his support to Hrant Dink.
