    LETTER TO THE PM FROM HRANT'S FRIENDS

    Today's Zaman
    Sept 14 2011
    Turkey

    Sept. 15 is the birthday of Hrant Dink [the Turkish-Armenian journalist
    who was shot to death in 2007]. If he were alive today, he would
    turn 57.

    If the darkness which creates murderers out of babies had not taken
    Dink away from us on Jan. 19, 2007, he would most probably be sipping
    his rakı with his grandchildren, family and friends tonight. There
    will be a new hearing of the Dink trial on Sept. 19. Another one in a
    string of never-ending hearings, the number of which we have forgotten,
    and yet, no distance has been covered so far. On such a day, we write
    the following letter to the prime minister as Hrant's friends. Esteemed
    prime minister, they have killed our friend, Hrant Dink. Our search
    for justice has been to no avail now, five years after his death. The
    state to whom we sent a petition seeking justice has sided with the
    killers. We have complaints about this.
