The latest evidence submitted to the case investigating the murder
of Hrant Dink, the late editor-in-chief of the Turkish-Armenian
Agos weekly, was found through the efforts of the journalist's son,
Arat Dink, who developed a software program that revealed misleading
police information in the case, Today's Zaman reports..
Recall, Dink was shot and killed by an ultranationalist teenager
outside the offices of his newspaper in broad daylight in İstanbul
on Jan. 19, 2007. The investigation into his murder stalled when
the suspected perpetrator and his accomplices were put on trial,
but those who masterminded the plot to kill Dink have yet to be found
and punished.
Arat Dink, acting as a detective in his father's murder case, developed
a software program to examine Telecommunications Directorate (TİB)
phone records the Dink family attorneys were able to receive only a
week ago. He was able to find five phone numbers that belong to people
who were present at the crime scene on the day of the murder and who
spoke with Mustafa Ozturk and Salih Hacısalihoglu, two suspects in
the investigation.
Fethiye Cetin, the Dink family's lawyer, also stated that, because of
Arat Dink's software, they have been able to detect 14 other phone
numbers belonging to people who were not present at the scene of
the crime, but were called by two suspects who were present in the
vicinity of the Agos office at the time of the assassination.
Arat Dink's findings were submitted to the İstanbul 14th High
Criminal Court by Cetin during the 24th hearing of the trial. Cetin,
recalling police officials' statement that no phone conversation was
found among the suspects on the day of the murder, accused them of
providing misleading information in the case.
"We found this information with very limited resources. I find it
impossible for police officials to not notice this information, given
the advanced technology they possess," Cetin stated, suggesting that
police intentionally obscured the evidence.
