Ogun Samast,the assailant who murdered Turkish-Armenian journalist
Hrant Dink in 2007 has named a third key suspect in the investigation
into the murder, according to Yeni Þafak daily.
Samast, who was sentenced to 21 years and six months in prison in 2011
for the murder, is currently testifying as a witness in the ongoing
investigation into the murder. The sources said that Samast has named
the suspect, who can add a new dimension to the investigation following
a three hour interrogation by prosecutor Yusuf Hakký Doðan.
Hrant Dink, editor-in-chief of the Turkish daily Agos, was murdered
outside his office by 17-year-old Ogun Samast on January 19 2007. An
earlier investigation showed that the prosecutors who worked on the
case ignored serious allegations into the involvement of top police
officers in the murder.
The prosecutors are accused of having ties with the Gulen Movement, a
group whose widespread infiltration of the judiciary and police enabled
them to influence cases or fabricate them for their own interests.
