    Leader of Turkish nationalist party criticized Minister of Family
    and Social Policies Fatma Sahin for her proposal to declare Armenian
    journalist Hrant Dink a martyr.

    Head of Nationalist Movement party Devlet Bahceli slammed authorities
    for their plans to declare civilian a martyr, T24 website reports.

    Earlier the Minister said in case Dink's family applies to the
    province's authorities, Dink may be declared a martyr by the decision
    of the commission.

    Hrant Dink, chief editor of the bilingual Armenian-Turkish Agos

    2007 by Turkish ultranationalist Ogun Samast.
