PanARMENIAN.Net - Turkey's Telecommunications Directorate (TÝB) has
finally delivered the phone records requested by the court overseeing
the case of Hrant Dink, Turkish-Armenian journalist and Agos bilingual
newspaper editor-in-chief, who was assassinated in 2007.
TÝB had earlier rejected two other court demands to disclose the
relevant phone records, first by indicating to the court that no
phone calls were made in the area in question, then by claiming
that the disclosure of such information would amount to a "violation
of privacy."
In October, however, TÝB responded to the same demands by a higher
court with a counter request. The TÝB demanded that a series of
simulated phone calls be made and that other relevant information
about the calls, such as their duration and date, also be recorded.
The request could be in vain, however, as the locations of the base
stations in the area might have changed, or the base stations may
have been removed altogether in the four years that have passed since
the assassination.
TÝB offered no explanation as to how placing such simulated phone
calls might shed light on the events surrounding Dink's murder,
Hurriyet Daily News reported.
