    PanARMENIAN.Net - A delegation of 160 people has gone to Switzerland
    to show support for the head of Turkey's Workers' Party, Dogu Perincek,
    who is on trial there for publicly denying Armenian Genocide.

    The general leader of the Turkish Workers' Party, Perincek is on
    trial in Switzerland for negating Armenian Genocide during a 2005
    demonstration in Lausanne, Hurriyet reported.

    Having been convicted by a Swiss court of law for denial of Genocide,
    Perincek filed a return lawsuit against Switzerland with the European
    Court of Human Rights (ECHR).

    ECHR addressed Turkey, requesting a case-related letter, which was
    sent today by Ankara.

    The response of ECHR remains to be seen.
