    YEREVAN. - Istanbul-Armenian Agos weekly's former editor Aris Nalci
    believes by bringing to account the mere 7 people, who are accused
    in the case into the murder of Agos' chief editor Hrant Dink in 2007,
    the Turkish state is concealing all other accomplices of this murder,
    former Agos editor Aris Nalci told Armenian News-NEWS.am, reflecting
    on Istanbul prosecutor's statement on Monday demanding the aforesaid
    7 convicts be sentenced to life in prison in connection with Dink's
    murder.

    In Nalci's words, even though the prosecutor's demand was expected
    by Istanbul's Armenian community, we cannot say local Armenians are
    overjoyed by this because they know the real culprits are even more
    and, by punishing solely these 7 people, an attempt is made to keep
    the remaining perpetrators away from being brought to justice.

    Aris Nalci also underscored that he did not believe those 7 offenders
    will actually be punished. "I have no faith in the trial. In addition,
    the Armenian community here has never protested on its own, it has
    never made any statements, and it has expressed its protest over Dink's
    murder always jointly with the Turks and the Kurds. So, we cannot
    say the Armenian community is preparing to protest," Nalci concluded.
