Turkey
A Turkish court in Istanbul began on Monday the first open hearing
of the assassination case of a Turkish-Armenian journalist.
The court will hear the nineteen suspects accused of murdering Hrant
Dink, the editor-in-chief of Turkish-Armenian weekly, Agos.
Monday's hearing is the first to be open to the press and observers,
as the former five sessions were closed to the press since one of
the suspects was a juvenile.
Eight of the nineteen suspects are currently being detained in prison.
Dink was shot dead outside the offices of Agos newspaper in
Istanbul in January, 2007. Police arrested the gunman and a
suspected associate
