The Armenian Youth Federation of Canada and Armen Karo Student
Association have launched a joint campaign to call for the release
of Turkish journalist, publisher, writer and human rights advocate
Ragıp Zarakolu.
Several months ago, 40 intellectuals were arrested in Turkey on
trumped-up charges of terrorism. Among them was Ragıp Zarakolu who
runs of one of the few publishing houses in the country which prints
books on the Armenian Genocide and other topics deemed taboo.
Zarakolu is also a recipient of the National Library Award of the
Republic of Armenia and a Nobel Peace Prize nominee.
The "Free Zarakolu" letter-writing campaign kicks off March 8, 2012,
at the Armenian Community Centre in Toronto.
