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.
